RADS and ADA BUFFS question

Iv'e been saving up now, and I'm having trouble deciding on which bars to get. RADs or ADA BUFFs. Strong is not of my conernes because i don't ride that hard. But I hate heavy scooters. So I was wondering which would be more worth it for me. The idea of changing bars sounds really awesome but I don't know how heavy buff bars are. Rads seem nice to because they are lighter but you can't change the bars. Please help me. And if anyone knows how much both of them weigh, please tell me.

Depending on your height and width every single pair of bars will be a different weight.

If you are going for weight then stick to Razor bars.

If not then buy them for strength and features.

I've been having trouble with the same thing. I would probably go with the RADs, though, because, like every new product, there will probably be some bugs to work out. But I doubt you would have a problem with the buffs. also, RADs are cheaper too.

I'm not going for weight, I'm just saying I don't want my scooter to be incredibly heavy. I want strength definitely.

never riden either but i thnk rads loook dank plus cheaper but if u break somthing your kinda screwd but i duno buffs seem pretty heavy to me so i would go with the rads or wait a wile and hear some feedback on buffs
 
Well , as far as I feel , Buffs might be slightly heavier because the welded part at Rads is that block of stuff with ADA if you know what I mean. I don't really care about weight. I want it solid is it can be and durable.

I think you should do what you want. I'm sure one side of you is telling you to get this thing because its cheaper and lighter etc. Maybe you should wait for ADA to get tested by people first.

andrew had people test them and i remember someone saying kc bent his or somthing.

im thinking that rads and ada buffs will be about equal for lightness but i can't judge strength yet.

Both bars would probably bend in the situation that your scooter goes flying on top of your bars...

Anything will bend if you fall hard enough or throw it far enough. I don't know what happened to KC's bars other than the fact that he is still riding them and has been for the last 3 months. If he did bend them at some point he obviously either bent them back or replaced the cross bar and is still good to go which is the beauty of their design.

When the bars go on sale next month they will be equipped with 4130 chromoly crossbars which will fix the only weak point on these bars.

I'm seriously considering Buffs. i'm just a little bit concerned about the weight because Nate said KC's felt really heavy.
