Question Bars BMX vs. MX

I am looking to get a bar kit soon. But I am not sure on which type to get, (Bmx style vs. Mx style) what are your opinions on kit styles I am either thinking of getting the bbr kit which has bmx style bars or a kit like this with mx bars http://www.chronic50s.com/home.htm

bars

If you really wanna try the best of both worlds just buy a clamp and throttle that you like and buy some short bmx bars..I have some 5 3/4 bars on my 50. I measured from the bottom bar to the center cross bar and i love them.. I have attached a pic. These are bmx bars and a local bike shop would have many many styles and sizes..

MX's are too wide, I would go with BMX.

i love my bmx bars, much better for wheelies and stuntin (not highchairs though). just got pics up check it - the 'box' is almost the same size as the stockers, but wider, taller and stronger.

I have had both mx and bmx and there is nothing like a good pair of bmx bars
the mx bars are to wide and you bang your knees when you turn and it's harder to ride standing up
bmx bars are the all around stunt jump and just plain old ridingg bars
