DEITY Villain III 2010 Handlebar
Dope Ass Bars
The Good
Light weight, good geo.
The Bad
Slipped in my stem at first, but I'm currently using 25.4 to 31.8 adapters, so that could be why. I also tightened my stem bolts down real tight and they haven't slipped since.
Overall Review
Ilove these bars. I had been thinking of switching from low rise to 3" rise for a while and decided to go for it. So glad I did. I feel much more in control on dirt jumps and manuals are much easier. They may not work for everyone, but I'm hooked.

Burgtec Penthouse Flats Mk3 Pedal with Ti Axle
The Good
These are the best pedals I have ever had for DH. Big platform and good size/number of pins means your feet do not come off even without 510's. Very reliable and come in probably the widest range of colours.
The Bad
Nothing at all
Overall Review
The Price sounds alot but when I think about how good they are and how long they have lasted compared to other pedals I have had then it doesn't seem so much. I have had my burgtec's 4 yrs now and they have had a hard life. for comparrison I had a set of Crank Brothers 50/50s and they lasted 3 months and weren't ridden anywhere near as hard.

Shimano PD-MX30 Flat Pedal
Standard Shimano
The Good
Reliable, easy to service and reasonable weight. Good size platform with plenty of grip once the pins have been swapped out for the long ones which are suplied with the pedal.
The Bad
Nothing really bad I did snap an axcel on my first set but that was after 1 and a half years of DH and some big huck to flats. Perhaps a little thick for some and they come with the short pins in and have to swap them out for the long ones which are provided in the box.
Overall Review
Excellent when you consider the price, Standard shimano product really not the lightest but very durable and works exactly as it should.

Crankbrothers 5050 XX Flat Pedal
The Good
Errr colours
The Bad
Bearings wore out quicker than any pedals I've had before. Axles constantly became loose (nearly every ride) and eventually after about 3 months would not tighten up. Grip from the platform was also poor compared to the pedals i have on my other bikes possibley due to the steped design.
Overall Review
Do not buy a set of these pedals. I have DX flats, Burgtec penthouse flats and DMR Vaults these are all far superior to the Crank Brothers and are a simalar price and far more durable and much grippier.

Specialized Pitch Comp Bike
Ride it all bike
The Good
It compensates well for a rider lacking finesse! Confident. More than the sum of its parts. Great fun.
The Bad
It can't work miracles! Suspension has workman like damping and control.
Overall Review
It climbs up steep mountain passes, descends like a demon, handles rock strewn trails, bogs, drops, slabs and a fair few knocks. If you haven't for 4 grand for a 4 grand bike and can accept some compromises this will do everything the same. Slack head is great for the drops and the seat tube is steep enough for the climbs. The kit isn't fancy but incremental upgrades will only improve it. I've had mine almost a year and the bottom bracket, hubs and freewheel have succumb to bogs, rivers, rain
