The strongest are probably wees I would say

Possibly the new rads but only a few people have them

The proto slayers are not out yet but twan buff and alex have been riding them for a while so they seem strong

And bay states I have heard are strong and they are very cheap

Alright, basically any normal one-piece bar is strong enough for regular use. BayStates, Scooter Zones, whatever, they are not gonna bend with the regular implied force on the cross bar. The main reason bars bend is because the are thrown/dropped on the cross bar. In that case, Protos will probably be the strongest. However, if you don't plan on throwing your scooter around, or tossing it in mid air during a backflip, I'd look for a basic one-piece bar, like BayStates for example. While they aren't the strongest, they will hold up just fine.

seasoned scooters bars are light and cheap but bend even with every day riding. my brother is small and light and is still learning like bri's and 540's and stuff and he has never thrown his scooter and they bent (15 wide seasoned bars)

Mine arent bent yet and they are 18 and i ride harder than everyday riding they are holding up. I would like to try their new bars though. Seems everyone is using the Y design these days.

No. What I was saying is that any basic one piece bar will hold up fine, using BayStateBars as an example. However, if you are going to throw your scooter around a lot, then I would recommend going with a gusseted bar, like wees, or protos.
