The VO Crazy Bars are intended for touring on paved and unpaved roads, single and double track, gravel and crushed limestone, and everything in between.

The main, swept back section provides excellent control and leverage on rough and tumble surfaces, while the the bullhorn section offers an aero position for smoother roads and headwinds. The junction of the horns and sweeps feels similar to being on the hoods of drop bars and makes for a nice, neutral position.

The main bar uses a 22.2mm grip area so MTB grips, levers, and shifters fit. The "horns" are 23.8mm, so road components like bar ends and inverse levers are compatible. The stem clamp area is 31.8mm.

Crazy Bars are made from 6061 aluminum and are heat treated. Weight is a reasonable 532g. They are MTB-rated and available in sand-blasted Silver and Noir.

Crazy Bars

Caused hand neuropathy for me

I purchased these for a rigid touring MTB. Initially, I really liked these bars for shorter mixed-surface riding. I found them comfortable and liked having the various hand positions.

However, this summer I went on a longer bikepacking trip on rough roads (GDMBR). On this longer trip, these bars contributed to severe nerve problems in my hands. The main riding position put my wrists at a slightly harsh angle, which over the course of a month of riding added up to a serious injury for me.

Other users have reported these bars being extremely comfortable and solving problems with the back/neck. This is all true, but for me the bars caused wrist/hand problems. Hopefully this problem is unique to me, but I wanted to warn other riders with hand problems.

Crazy Bars

These are just what I needed to get a better upright position on my mountain bike. I really like the slight sweep back on my wrists. I actually feel faster on the trails with these bars!

Good hand positions

I added the Crazy Bars to my touring bike (1992 Giant Yukon) to replace the flat mountain bike bars, and I like the diversity of hand positions. The extra width affords me greater leverage and the nubs mimic Buckhorn bars. I also use the position inward of the nubs on occasion. The only negative
is that the extra width makes storage and transporting in my vehicle a bit awkward.

Second purchase of the Crazy-bars-2

I put the first set on my mtb that I use as a winter commuter.
The second set I purchased for my touring bike. I have problems with my neck and the Crazy-bars-2 put me in a much better position than the drop bars. Yet still giving me an area position when I need it.
I would make the purchase again and quite happy with the Crazy-bars-2
