Has anyone here ever tested between Enve, Raceface SixC, and/or Renthal carbon bars one the same bike and same tire (and Insert) setup? If you actually have done this test, which did you feel was best and why?
Try the e13 TRS tires. Feels thicker than an EXO, and the grip is phenomenal, even the harder compound one. So I can continue to take stupid lines I'm running the Double Down Aggressor in the back though.

Had Minnaar bars and sixc's on my old Glory / M9. I liked the envy bend better, cant say I preferred one or the other for compliance or ride quality though.

I agree. TRS tires are the shit
As stated above, good tires either compound. Good weight vs performance
Split the combo here too as no need for the rear - impressive tires that wear fairly quick but give confidence inspiring levels of grip.

Same toughness as a DD/SG tyre? If so I'd try some.

Definitely not as burly as SG. TRS tires are fairly light compared to SG but have sturdy sidewalks and in my experience excellent puncture resistance. I ran three different sets of TRS without any issues in really rocky terrain. I'm currently on the new addix magic mary SG and it seems to mute the trail more. I'd say it's worth a try, I'd still be on the trs tires if my shop didn't run out of them when I needed tires.

You guys race these, so that says a lot
Looove those tires, currently out of stock for another month it looks like. I'll keep 'er tuned!
Winning the weight game when my new saddle gets here. Went with Clap's recommendation for a flatter saddle than my Bel Air 2.0 and switched to a Circuit MTN Carbon. Got one for the roadie too. Hopefully the flatter front end is going to help with any...discomfort I'm experiencing as well.
Bel Air 2.0 is roughly 230g, Circuit Carbon is 185g claimed.

I've never had issues on SG tyres, but I hated the only EXO tyres I had, they spent one day on the bike then got sold off. Folded over in corners even at 35-40psi, didn't get the chance to set them up tubeless, and ended up with 6 pinch flats in that day. magic Mary's i can run at 20-24psi without problems, haven't flatted or burped a tyre since I put them on,
yeah i run an exo on the front and either a DD or a DH casing on the rear with Cush Core. Super stable, and been pretty lucky as far as punctures and the like go.
