>>1567738the carbon handlebar is probably underrated, he got two with UD and his hasn't failed but his buddy's did, the first seller sent me the UD version by mistake so i have both and the 3K version feels significantly stiffer, it makes sense if you think about it, it's a complex shape that you can yank in all directions and they aren't going to fine tune every aspect of the layup so having a top layer with bidirectional fibers kinda makes up for any flaws in the layup
