DB bars thoughness?

Im asking myself do I have shitty DB bars from shitty material or do they bend every fall? Im going from no hander to walking the bike (more of an saving my *** move, as I ran over water drainage that made me wobble) and I push it forward to catch it for rear seat...of course I forgot that my idle was lil bit high, lol, so it goes back to the bar and BAM...both sides of my tank are dented from bars, left very hard and right slightly, and DB bars are like damn...

Re: DB bars thoughness?

these are some that I got from sponsor...it's some kind of aluminium alloy...what kind of material are yours made from?

I managed to straighten 'em...somewhat...they do look like a banana, but it's ridable I guess..

@playa: don't make me put some pics, cuz you'll have nightmares...damn...lol

Re: DB bars thoughness?

I got CHEAP *** bars off ebay for $26 shipped

so far they have lived through 3 hard drops

broke my old cage and stator cover the first drop, broke my hand brake hte second drop, and broke my MSR raptor the 3rd drop

Bars are still perfectly straight

My latest drop, I figured the bars were fucked, but it turns out they are PERFECT :YEAH
