Chimera 'Beloved' Handlebar !

[Mr.Jowee]

I like the color of these. I think it cured my diarhea.

Seriously though, pretty cool sh*t.

Awesome!  I love zero offset, where can I get one??  If I could get it in white w/ a hole drilled through the crossbar to fit a front brake cable I'd just die.

There's a trick to installing a compression bolt on bar/stem combos where you can't reach the bolt easily (though I imagine it would help even with regular stems).  Tighten the bolt down BEFORE you tighten your stem.  That way, you can grab the bolt with a wrench, and then just spin the wrench and bars around together a few times until it's tight enough.  Much easier than turning the bolt 1/6 turn, pulling out, re-grabbing with wrench, turn 1/6 turn, and so on.

Handle will be available begining of 2008  If Beloved frame still hanging very well after 6 months testing there is no way to crash bar

I like your work Zin even though I prefer a stem, but you have some good ideas and also have the guts to make this stuff, when globalflat is loaded with critics and so forth. May I just suggest to turn the amps down on your welder so as not to burn into the 3 mm stem sleeve part of your bar combo. I have no doubt its strong enough for flat, but the melted section is not a good look. Sorry for sounding like another critic, but I'm actually trying to help.

Better welds is the last thing which will make my work perfect, my welder is still learning about welding stuff like that. But you know - If you wanna make something good,make it yourself  But I Know and Chimera is still learning  And it don't sounding like critic ,no problem- everything from people for people   

[Wouter van der Linde]

Dude! you are amazing, exactly what i am looking for!
but 80 euro!
that's to exensive for me!
and you have one without the stem combo?

damn i love it!

nice work man!!........just as someone mentioned, watch the burn on your welds. gougeing(spelling?) i believe its called.

[TOflat]

Gouging. Yeah, the welds are gnarly but as you said, the welder is new at it. For safety/integrity purposes I wouldnt be sending out any bars that were welded by someone who was learning. Just aint right! But the design of the bars is pretty much perfect.

[kabirun]

I like the bars alone without the integrated stem thing.

good job

[Robbie Belding]

wow they look sweet I'm thinking of buying one of those bars. Where can I buy those?

[Hugo @ Portugal]

I like the look of it.. I'm not sure about the concept though.
You guys should really put it to the test with several riders, who knows maybe even ship the damn thing free of charge to pro/sem-pro riders before releasing it to the general public.
I ain't saiyng Chimera stuff is bad quality but when you guys ask for 80€ + shipping for amateur built parts you really should make sure they won't break in a couple of months couse we can get those prices on larger companies who have whole teams of flatland riders trying out their products months and months before they decide to release 'em.

I like tha customization thought, any color and size/sweep is a must.
