Just wanted to add that I finally did order a Bull Bar and compared it to my Bullmoose 150mm.. Indeed, the Bull Barr requires less extension to match the reach of the Bullmoose. A Bull Bar with 110mm stem is approximately the same extension as the 150mm Bullmoose. The angle and rise is a bit

I will give Rivendell a call about Waive. I was pondering the Bull Bar last night and it seems that to match the 150mm Bull Moose, one would need.a 150mm stem. So, that's awfully hard to match. With the Bull Bar and 135mm stem, which is made by Nitto, and lowering the bars a bit the rea

I've not had an actual Bullmoose to compare directly to. I would call RivHQ to confirm, but it is my understanding that it's the same, sans moose of course. Wavie is another valid option, I'm eying them up for another project I'm working on if I can't find a 610 Ahearne Map bar. Best jared O

Jared, So, it really is the exact same curve as the Bullmoose, right? So, to get the exact same reach I'd need a 150mm stem, of which I think 135mm is the max Nitto offers in the faceplater. The Waive could also work I think. Might even be a little better for non-trail riding. On Monday, Aug

Had a bull bar on my XL Susie, it's a very nice unit and I would recommend it to anyone. Paired with a Faceplater stem you'll be in good shape. Let us know how things transpire. Best jared SC, CA On Monday, August 26, 2024 at 12:30:38 PM UTC-7 Ginz wrote: > Ah, ok. I did not see the bull ba

Ah, ok. I did not see the bull bar. Does Nitto consider this to be an "off road" bar? So it requires the nitto faceplater stem, which is ok. Geez, I can't believe I didn't see this before. Thanks! On Monday, August 26, 2024 at 2:49:35 PM UTC-4 maxcr wrote: > Have you seen the bullbar? I

I have found https://whatbars.com/ to be very helpful. I replaced my last bullmoose with Ritchey Kyote bars, and I've also used Surly Open bars but if that Bull bar had been available, I would have tried it. jim m walnut creek On Monday, August 26, 2024 at 11:49:35 AM UTC-7 maxcr wrote: > Have

I should have said similar sweep angle and overall extension, which is roughly negative by a few centimeters! On Monday, August 26, 2024 at 2:41:39 PM UTC-4 Ginz wrote: > Hello Everyone, > > I know that Bullmoose has be discussed quite a bit around here. > > I have the 150mm extension bullmo
