When Jay Miron left Macneil, many in the industry thought that it would be the end of the company. Frankly, I do not think so. They still continue to churn out quality product and these new bars from them, called the Tabarnak bars, is testament to their reputation. Many riders nowadays are riding bars that would not look out of place in the 1980s, with the wide stretch and nigh height. According to Macneil's website, these bars:
...feature full post weld heat treating, multi-butted
Sanko tubing, 19mm cross bar and is available with 8.25″ or 8.75″ rise.
The 8.25″ rise version is 28.5″ wide with 10º backsweep and 1º upsweep
and the 8.75″ rise version is 30″ wide with 12º backsweep and 1º
upsweep. Available colours are ED black, green, purple, raw and chrome.
So there you have it...more colours available than a Mexican blanket. Good enough to use for racing and strong enough to take bumps at the trails. Pretty nice don't you think?
