Pro taper bars and dep pipe
-
Hi guys how are you all doing?
I know I was meant to show you all the DT RE I got but my brother had a bit of a accident on it, which left the dep pipe slightly dented and quite badly scratched along with the handlebars bent, I was planning on getting “PRO TAPER CONTOUR MOTOCROSS HANDLEBARS FAT BARS” and was wondering if they fit and if anyone has had experience with them. Also relating with the dep pipe is it possible to clean it up a bit? As in remove the scratches and the dent.Hope your doing well and when I get the bike back in nick I’ll show you I promise haha!

Yeah I am running Pro Taper Fat Bars myself.
They're lovely bars, but not everyone's cup of tea.
The thing you need to be mindful of is that you need raisers on them to fit. And it will put a little bit more tension on the cables.
But other than that yeah they're lovely.
Yeah the DEP end can is ally, so it can be polished and buffed up. But depends how badly it is. They aren't that expensive new so if it's really bad you could consider freshing it up with a new one.

@natnice Pro Taper bars are lovely, I have my eye on a pair for my MX 125. There is not a lot of difference between them and Renthal fat bars, personally I feel the Pro Tapers are a better colour and have better bends to them. There's plenty on ebay up for grabs, just pick your preference and some matching riser clamps and you'll be good-to-go!!!
