4 pcs bars break a lot easier (usually at the bottom weld - there's a lot of stress in this area). 2pcs bars are lighter and stronger. I do like the look of 4 pcs on some set ups though.

Mike Frisk 4 pc bars looks so flawless. Ima little bit of a weight wieny though. I like to save weight where I can the easiest and bars are Defs in that category.

TheCannabisCorner nothing wrong with saving some weight were it does not sacrifice strength or in this case saving weight while adding strength (if you choose a good 2pcs bar instead of a 4pcs)

Those are rad! They look cool on bikes, they're just not aesthetically pleasing on my whip +Tudor Does bmx
Hey,i hve one question,is height of the bike make any different for certain people?..i meant the height from ground to the bar (grip) Sorry for bad english
It all depends on preference. I ride a 4 piece on my flat bike and a 2 piece on my street bike. The 4 piece got the bar very low thou to hop over more easy.
I went from two piece stock Colony Endeavour bars to the Animal foursome bars and the first thing I noticed was the weight. The first few times doing manuals was a bit off but you get used to it. I do like the 'feel' of four piece bars, they definitely do feel more rigid and like I have more control or something...hard to explain. If you're sitting on the fence and you don't mind a *little* extra weight up front, give them a try. You'll love the look of them as well.

If you didn't already know TNT made a 6 piece bar. They look Heavy. ELF did make some out of aluminum.

I like how aggressive 4 piece bars look, they also have a completely different feel from 2 piece bars. I replaced my 2 piece bars on my bike with 4 piece bars and it felt like a completely different bike, took me like 2 weeks to get used to it
I like how the two piece bars look more anyway so
The KNOWLEDGE DONT STOP!!!!
I was running those noster bars for a day and had to switch back to my stranger brooks 10''. Those noster bars feel so small compared to other 8.75 bars.. weird. Anyone know why the stranger brooks bars are now discontinued?!
I cracked my 4 piece bars at the weld yesterday.. That's why I'm here.. I'm looking at bars and I'm not sure weather to buy 4 or 2 piece.. They were stock hi-ten Steel bars and so I'm going to buy 4130, but since my bars cracked at the weld, I'm leaning more towards 2 piece.. Do you see many 4130 bars crack at the weld?
@AlfredoMancuso

Its definitely still possible over time, however the heat treatment on the 4130 bars does significantly strengthen them
Need handle bars eaven though its brocken can i have it so i could put a bar on my build its been 8 months now

Alfredo, please help me understand this once, and for all! What trick, and, or " tricks" require such tall bars? I'm a pretty big rider, and depending on what type of riding I'm doing, I'll change my bars, but I always try to drop them down, I can get crazy into tiny bars too, but I have some really cool 4 piece that I'm exited to get on my 22 inch! So it's for bar spins?

Yo dude! What I did is got the OG begin 420 bars. The width was like 30 and I had taken a measuring tape and marked the bars then bought a little 4 dollar pipe cutter that clips on and spins and cuts at the same time.( sell these pipe cutters at Home Depot) and I cut them down to roughly 28 width and it feels better to throw. Hope it helps

What bars are the 4 piece bars?
Im 5'6/5'7ish and i ride 10 high s&m fu bars with them cut to 26 wide and a topload stem. I dont like the feeling of short bars but i cant ride them wide.
I run like a big rise on my bars I had a 10" rise but now I'm going to a 9.5. I like the feel of being up right and what I had before has like an 8.3 so I was like slouching over and it felt terrible. I just got some stranger 4 piece bars 9.5

+ Alfredo Mancuso Your right it seems more people ride 2pc. I know I have pretty much always. I had a set of Ron-C bars back in the day and liked them...until they snapped at the right side by the stem. And it would have been fine, except that it happened on takeoff on a set of doubles with a 5' lip. I heard it as I pulled up and knew I was doomed when I landed. Since then I have never used anything but 2pc lol

4 piece all day long, looks way cooler. Feels much better.
I have a package coming in today, with a Shadow Conspiracy multi-tool, spare chain and half link, a helmet for my son, bike rack, and some spare grips... My bonus kid is also expecting his bike to show up today, its a 2020 WeThePeople CRS.... I think the geometry of that bike should work well for him, especially the short back end... he is a short little guy for 12 years old... still under 5', and I doubt he ever hits more than like 5'5" if that... might have to look for some small bars for him, like some 8"-8.5" rise...

Hey not trying to throw shape put a triangle with the top cut of is called a trapozoid
I'm six foot, but I'm very flexible. I don't know if flexibility is the reason, but I like narrow bars, though I do ride a longer frame. Unless I'm mountain biking, I still like a narrow bar, but for mtb I like a smaller frame than what I "should" be on. I've had a lot of people try and talk me out of this, but my bike set ups have always felt perfect for me, so why change. I don't know if this might apply to others, but if you are flexible, you might want to experiment with sizes and geometries outside of what people your height might normaly ride.
