    i posted a similar question a couple of weeks ago and really did not get an answer. what is the difference in the Pro Taper with/w/o the cross bar?

It reminds me of how the prisoners on death row have fun waiting for their turn on the electric chair. Fair enough, the trike isn't an electric chair, but it is about as safe and comfortable as one."

    The ProTapers are fatter near the clamp mounts and then taper down to normal size at the grip area. They also have different wall thickness in different areas. This makes them lighter and stronger than steel bars and lets them do away with the crossbar. I have also seen ProTapers with cross-bars, but I guess those are for the really paranoid people (or Gorilla Monsoons...).

    Mine were previously bent when they were on a 110, and they even have the cross bar.

    Thank you, that does help.....

    I still need the bar chart for part # TR_027979

    DK charts are useless because they aren't the same brand bar.....

    Hey, thanks to BOTH of you guys... I just pray it clears the clamp width.

    TR was out of the adapters, I need a set. You guys seen them anywhere cheap or without paying 10$ to ship them?? I assume I can use ANY brand adapter....

    Thanks again....
