Does anyone else find it harder to do back bri's with wider bars? It was easy with stockys but i cant quite get the rotation round comfortably with 18s. anyone else have this problem

i ride 18's and i can still do all my tricks. but i can do them cleaner with 18's and its jus more comfortable for me. ride the width and height your comfortable with and you should be fine

i find really low/short bars to be really easy to do tricks with, but my bars are 16 wide 21 high and some tricks i have less dialed on it than normal stock.

just get used to it, eventually it'll be second nature

Actually, bris are easier for me with 18 wide...it's easier to control the rotation with such wide bars...
18 wide 21 high here...and no problems...

dont ride wide bars unless you can still do al your tricks with them.. its pointless.

I can still do everything with teh 18s like i can with stock. Most things bigger but it's just the bri rotation that stuffs me. i keep getting stabbed by the end of the bar (no barends)

for me everything with my 20"s make it alot more fun than anything smaller, i can still do everything, some things are harder to do but others are easier
i dont think bris or front bris are any harder
 
Funny thing is with smaller bars i can back bri but not front bri but then when im running wide bars i cant normal bri yet i can inward its kind of odd haha.

people say its easier because the scooter is closer to you when you rotate it somehow,lol but i can only do them with stock bars,lol.

stock bars are shitty though. I think that around 16 should be the absolutely smallest anyone should go with bars..
