Question on carbon bars

Hi

I'm thinking about buying a second hand Easton EC70 XC but are carbon handle bars any good,do they tend to flex or are they similar stiffness to alloy ?


Thanks

Bill

Question on carbon bars

They don't flex at all they take the sting out of the terrain, I even wiped out one day at high speed and twisted my stem, but the bars were fine, seriously strong.

My rule for carbon bars is buy the strongest ones you can and never buy second hand! When Terry comes to selling his do you think he'll tell you about his massive crash?

Thanks very much for the replies.
