Great review and appreciate all the effort you took into the writeup! My ONLY goal was to search for the most flexible bar on the market possible so I decided to purchase the Trail One - Crockett. Main reason is that there's a lot of chunk in my area and my left shoulder gets chronic pain after a 3-4 hour ride forcing me to stay away from the more technical segments, my hope is that a flexible bar might let me hit more black trails again! Anyway, I'm curious how significant of a loss in flex it would be to...

One thing to keep in mind that cutting bars usually reduces the flex. I usually ride 760 mm and there are not a lot of options on the market for narrower bars. So I really like the Era! btw: I use a Newmen SL 31.8 aluminium bar in 760.

Love this testing, thorough, kind to all the brands while still offering constructive feedback and acknowledging that everyone has different preferences. I will be stoked to see more bars added and a comprehensive list. A few years back Johan did a bar flex test, using a some gym equipment, it wasn't subjective at all and just offered a simple look at handlebar flex. I used to reference it quite a bit and wished it had been expanded upon. I very much enjoyed reading this article and look forward to the similar articles that follow.
