note the clean smooth line on the modular bars
this shaved weight as well as the bar has a slight amount of deflection absorbing rough roads & making it less fatiguing on joints arms & wrists over rough terrain

the stock calipers were BB-3 series.
went with the 7-series because of there larger pads as well as you can run a semi-metallic for better stopping power in adverse conditions
