Not sure from your question whether you refer to brand or something more specific, like bend, rise, pullback, or sweep.
Actually, no one else can tell you what to buy any more that they can tell you what kind of shoes to buy. It's a very personal choice depending on:
1. your riding position..standing often or sitting mostly
2. your height & arm length
3. the riding venue...woods, MX, XC, trail (fire roads,etc.)
4. your personal choice

Buying a bar simply because it's the current "cool" brand may be just perfect if you're lucky, or if it doesn't fit either you or your riding style, it can be uncomfortable and not condusive to the best control of your bike.So, you see, there is more to the choice than just what is cool or what everyone else has.
A long answer to a short question, but hopefully gives you more to consider. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

I have run two different sets of atv bend bars one from Renthal and the other from TAG. Both were about the same, and were easy to get used to. Maybe, I am just lucky or not picky, but I can pretty much find a way to ride a bike no matter how it is set up. Right now, I am setting up a quad with a plus one steering stem and a set of Renthal FatBars in CR high bend.

If you just want a new set of handlebars I would recommend Renthal or TAG. I have used both with good result. Although eventually I bent both sets. If you crash hard enough you will bend them and more than likely your steering stem too. Unless, you want to spend alot of money just get the standard style bars with crossbar pad, the FatBars, and Pro-Tapers require an extra mounting kit. Although, if you are thinking about buying a new steering stem you could just get it set up with a pro-taper mount.

 

Come on guys handlebars are handlebars. $32 Dominators will do the trick man. Unless you plan on turning your bike over Id get dominators, but if you plan on tearing your stuff up Id buy Tag,Pro Taper, or Renthal. My E-bay Pro tapers did the trick.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I always get cheep steel ones that are the CR-Hi bend. For as often as I go through handlebars it's stupid for me to spend more the $15 on a set of bars. I don't like ATV bend bars, they come up too high and they sweet back too much for my liking. They make my wrists feel akward.

 

I like a nice low set of bars, I run a stock stem and a set of std. Renthal CR250 low bend, the stock bars are ape hangers and better fit on a harley then on my quad...I find I have better control with low bars...

To the guy that said "jandlebars are handlebars" thats a crock of **** when you jump bars can soak up the landing, some do better then others, some will stay bent after a big jump. Spend more now , end up with a good strong set of bars in the end..

 

well i'm 5'10" and my dad has renthals on his warrior and i like them. i was going to get a pair but i just wanted to know if there was something maybe just as good or maybe not quite as good for a little cheaper price. i'm not exactly one who has alot of $$$.

 

Renthals if you can afford them."roll eyes" or moose bars if your cheap.

 

I'm cheap [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] I actually like moose bars.
