Yes those are pivots.
Fasst flexx bars mtb review.
There is no other handlebar that comes close to matching the performance durability and comfort of flexx handlebars.
I experience less vibration less arm pump less fatigue and in the occasional event of a crash the bars absorb impact away from my controls and steering stem.
Manufacturer fasst have tested the concept with atvs and motocross bikes since at least 2011 and have now launched mountain bike bars.
2nd place shreddy awards.
Has been bugging my dad and i to try the flexx bars.
Once you ve mounted them to the bike you can adjust the tension on the elastomers which changes the angle of the bar ends allowing you to adjust them to your liking.
The flexx bars just like your favourite suspension are designed to reduce the effect s felt from both high frequency vibration whilst minimizing the impact of the more brutal hits we ve all fallen foul of.
All i have heard is how great they are and how they have helped everyone ride so much.
Fasst flexx mtb handlebars smooth impacts with tuneable elastomer suspension fasst company is out to kill vibration and hand fatigue with their pivoting flexx mtb handlebars.
I have never owned the flexx bars but i have rode with them a few times and i like my twisted bars much better.
Yes the bars move up and down.
Installing the flexx bars is not much different than installing any other set of handlebars but they do require 1 1 8 inch oversize bar mounts.
The confidence inspiring flexx handlebar isolates your upper body from abuse allowing you to ride longer and charge harder by absorbing abuse and vibration in an unnoticeable manner.
Available in several variants the bars use unique compression and rebound elastomers for a completely tuneable and smooth ride.
While flex generally isn t a positive attribute for mountain bikes especially in a world where stiffer is always advertised as better fasst decided it was time to take what they learned from the motorcycle industry and bring that technology to mountain bikes.
Flexx handlebars as the company calls them are designed with elastomer dampers to help the bars do exactly what the name implies flex.
For the last year or so cole townsend from fasst co.
After my first ride my initial skepticism was replaced with confidence.
They are lighter and flex in all directions overall i think the twisted are better but neither are bad.
