is 915 to wide for a handle bar?
NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.
While out browsing the net Ive come across what is called the Yard stick. The Handle bar is 915mm wide started out as an office joke but became a reality. You can try super wide or cut it down to make an ultrastrong 750 bar as this has increased wall thickness.

Haha! Awesome
Bit too wide for me I think
If you've got gargantuan arms it's be alright 
No I think 915 will work nice for the single track behind the oval, mount your bars in from the end by 50mm each side then flatten the end with a hammer then sharpen them up with a file, approach the trail at speed and then mow down anything that looks noxious, however I would advise against overtaking mates on the trail lol
wide bars open up the chest for better breathing. That way you'll be less puffed out whenever you have to pick yourself off the ground because you've clipped another tree / rock / rider with your stupidly wide bars.....
LoL Kingy, would go well on the Oaks single track!
To ride 915 you need the shoulders to match.Some of the little people you see tring to ride 750 its funny.
