Though I don't personally care, you're going to get verbally destroyed for not searching.
Zero Offset supposedly makes Hang Fives easier but is less stable.
10 mm Offset is more stable at higher speed.
I ride 0 Offset DSA Cambo forks and I love it. It's not much to adapt, one centimeter isnt a lot!

ultra pro has 10 offset

and 10 offset is the best.
0 offset is good for nose stuff but is ugly as sin

backsweep means the bars are bent backwards. only get backsweep bars if you run 20+ wide. it's better for wrists.

ultra pro bars do not have backsweep.

use the "ask questions here" thread.

Proride just gave me bars wit 3 degrees of back sweep that r 18 W (i believe) and in my opinion they feeel soooooooooooooooooooooooo nice. made boosting easier and more comfortable, and at first i thought barspins and front scooter flips wuld b harder but it actually made them easier. like i used to mess up a front scooter flip every now and then, but after getting backsweep i land them every try.

Some people Luke the backsweep because it is ez to flow with like it says above but I have talked to some people and they say that they don't like back sweep because it feels more like a bike but personally I like it it is ez to do no handers and to flow better.
