I did the same upgrade this summer but went from a Race Face Carbon Bar to the OneUp bar. Even that was a difference going from one carbon to another.

Thanks for the mention.

I was riding 2 days ago (aluminum Renthal 35’s with 40mm rise in my case) - hands and arms got so tired on really technical, tight riding that I was taking my hand off the bar and shaking it after about an hour
