I have the Five-0 setup, but just for the bars and clamp. The rest is pieced together and orderd from Ron @ Xtreme Racing 50s.

The clamp seems really strong and I love the bar setup (I've only had it on since this weekend).

BUY A SET OF bmx BARS OFF EBAY AND A CLAMP OFF EBAY. You can do it all for less than $70

I got the Five-O setup w/ bars & clamp on ebay for $70 w/ shipping and handling included. I actually had to look for a while and thought this was a pretty good deal.

The throttle and brake cables are actually really easy to install and deal with...go and buy it off ebay, piece by piece, its a lot cheaper.

What part of jerzey are ya located in? I'm in Somerset County

Re: best big bar kit?

I love my Red Baron kit. I have had it a year and only broken the front brake lever from a ghost ride. I have crashed it a lot (a few here can say how hard I crash) and the bars are not bent at all.

The only problem I had with it was the four bolts that hold the bar clamp to the top tree vibrated loose. Blue locktite fixed that.

The kit didn't come with a throttle cable but all you do is re-route your stock cable to the right side of the bike and you are riding in comfort.

Get one with a metal throttle, I don't trust plastic ones.
