How's the bar holding up? Still good?
Looking at this one or the H11 style.

Great. Full season, lots of potholes, one ditch excursion, all good.

I was asked to upload photos due to PB blocking. Here, sorry about the condition of the bartape, end of season...

Mine are still holding up fine. I did get a deal on a Pardus branded original integrated bar for like 110usd (same as the expensive bontragers). They weigh 215gr for 400/90 vs 250gr for 400/90 (copy). I hear the bontragers weigh 225-230gr so I was surprised the Pardus branded ones were even lighter. Must be that glossy paint weighing the originals down.
If you want a ~250gr copy then get it matte unpainted.
