Author Message   Anthonys_dad Posted on Saturday, January 10, 2009 - 10:32 am:        I have a City X and I want to replace the bars with one that has less rise and perhaps sweep (I like the MX style). Any ideas of brands? The big question is the positioning notches on the controls and lack of holes on any of the replacement handlebars. Do I drill holes in the new bars, grind off the notches? I do not want to compromise the integrity of the new bars. Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks   Klloyd Posted on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 08:41 am:        I bought a set of pro tapers for my M2 and I just cut off the little peg. Personally I didnt want to compromise the bars at all, the peg... its just plastic!! Just my 2 cents and they have worked fine for the past 4 months through wheelies and all !!
