Sunline limited edition bars and grips!

Mar 24, 2009
by Si Paton  
Sunline will be offering limited edition color combos on the popular V1 bar in the 19mm rise and 745mm width along with a lock-on grip. One color combination will be offered at a time in truly limited numbers and then the next color will be brought in after the previous color is sold out.The first combo of red bars with white Logo lock-on thin grips with red end caps will be available in mid April. The next color in line will be the light blue bars with pink Big “S” lock-on grips with light blue end caps. Future color combos and availability will be announced on the website as the previous color sells out. There is a contest going on right now on the Sunline website;

Benetton eat your heart out..


To vote for your favorite color combination and lock-on grip go to www.sunlineracing.com/survey/

Now initially the competition was only open to the US but after a bit of sweet talking (death threats) they have opened it up Europe wide!

Only one vote per person and a winner will be randomly selected from each color to receive a set of the bars and grips before they are available to the public. Visit your local shop to make sure that you get your favorite color when it becomes available.

The bar and grip combos will retail for around £87.00 in the U.K and will be available through all Sunline dealers - though there will be strictly limited quantities available. Phone MMA Sports Ltd on 01792 467 467 for details of your nearest dealer.”

Weight for bar alone is 311g. Just remember these are oversized 31.8mm

Never, ever clip in..

 I can just see all the kids in their skinny jeans running to the stores for these bars.

 That made me laugh

 Ahah so true. I can see they running hysterical, lol. They preach how they love the 80's, although they were born in '93.

 Errr... and why the hell are they that expensive.... are they having a joke... trying to pull that 'limited edition' bullshit...
  • 6 0
 the expense may be from the archeological costs of diggin up these colors from the 80s!! nothin screams weiner-ass shite like these combos. kookas anyone?
  • 1 0
 kookas...haha! i guess we can thank kooka for something; we haven't seen splash anodizing on any other bike components since.

 well, it did say "limited"...whew..

 These bars are fugly....and so are the grips! Looks like sunline is sponsoring the pride parade on davie street this year! If you get yourself one of these, don't forget to put the rainbow sticker on your bike too. Show your gay pride!

 if they didn't cost soo much i would buy the purple ones with the yellow grips for my hardtail
  • 1 0
 the price is a bit hiked in the u.k as they bars retail for about 50/60 and the grips 15/20

come to think of it, with the extra cost of anodising and the "limited edition" their not all that much more and they do look sshhhaaweeeeettt

 I feel sorry for you hart of darkness... you dont seem to understand that rainbows arent gay unless you are gay, sam hill is not gay and neither is nico vouilloz... maybe you should get on your bike and off your computer and see the light and the coulours and be happy and smile and not feel gay about it...maybe if you werent so alone in the dark i wouldnt be explaining this! stop bitching just ride!

 cant wait for these colours to go away. Just a fad, and too bad for all who buys them and then by next spring, there will be a million of these for sale on the net.

 No reason for them to cost what they do. If I see them on closeout at one of my fav internet sites then I'll think about it...
