    Aluminum stock for handle bars?

    I've never had to look for well metal stock before. Am in guelph and just need a couple feet of aluminum tubing so i can cut some handle bars for the race clip on clamps i bought.
    Driving a cage is to have sanity forced upon you.

    I never understood why people want to do this.

    By the time you get the bar stock, cut it and find a suitable cap that will prevent body punctures in a crash.. is that worth saving $5?

    nope that looks good to me. Are all bars a standard length? Or is it just assumed you'll slide the inside of the bar as far into the clamp as you need?

    Vortex and Woodcraft are nearly identical, any bar will be 7/8" diameter so they are interchangeable. Just slide them through the clamp until they're in the right spot for you.
