bmx bars: taller, more narrow, more twitchy feel

mx bars: little lower, wider, more control of the front end



mostly preferences, if you come from big bikes like me then you cant go wrong with mx, but its all ur decision


good description... :I was thinking mx kit...because BMX bikes feel exactlty that :twitchy"... :D

mx is the only way to go, unless your like over 6' tall and you need the clearance just to be able to ride a 50.

riding fast and staying stable at those speeds are alot harder with a tall and narrow bar. to me it feels like the wheel is just too small and too far away to be controllable.
