tithead Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 i was reading a post by a guy on another forum about putting silikone in handle bars. was wandering if anyone had heard of this? and if they have, if it really works "stopping vibrations". i cant see it making that much of a difference but would like to see some veiws on this... tithead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RNBRAD Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 I would assume it would be like adding weighted bar ends on a bike which helps. May look into an anti-vibe stem if it's a big problem for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellison445 Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Yeap, it works... I have seen it more on the kids bikes though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blue Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Ive heard of people putting lead or steel shot in their bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FASTOYS Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 I tried it on the Tractor (Rappy) and didnt notice much difference. Just cant wheelie it now. NOT! Anti vibe stem DID help though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tithead Posted March 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 thanks for the info guys. i think ill try it on my renthals before i swap them for my fat bars, suppose its the only way ill find out if it makes a difference or not.

hittintrees srh Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 so what, you just squeeze a tube of silicone into your bars-is that what your talkin about sounds goofy but if you say it works.................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
