htown01shee Posted January 5, 2006 Report Posted January 5, 2006 I was wondering if any of you guys with the same bars are haveing this problem too. I contacted tagmetals and the only way they will look into warrantying my bars is if I kept the reciept. The bars are less than 8 months old but I didn't keep up with the reciept. I havee another question is there any other bars that are crome that last better? I need something that will work with my lonestar steering stem. i want to stay with crome so that it will match my stam. I want to buy something that the people will stand behind their product a little better. Quote
locogato11283 Posted January 5, 2006 Report Posted January 5, 2006 i would go with trailtech. i have 3 sets of their bars and ive never had an issue. i had polished lookin ones on my 450 that i rolled several times down very steep hills. it took a lot to bend them and the finish never chipped off..id try some trailtech..i bet they stand behind their shit.

BTW: Tag bars suck ass now... 2 of my buddie have had them flake.. they got them replaced b/c there sponsored but seems like that's the only way they'll take care of anybody... Mike Quote
spongeboob0 Posted January 5, 2006 Report Posted January 5, 2006 I have the same problem, 3 months probably 10 rides and they started flaking, I emailed them twice.. no response..NICE CUSTOMER service!!! They will never get another dollar of my money.. Renthal Fat Bars look pretty good.. Quote
RNBRAD Posted January 5, 2006 Report Posted January 5, 2006 I would assume these tag bars are aluminum and chrome just doesn't plate to aluminum very well with any reliance. Tag should of never chose to plate them in the first place. Find some polished aluminum bars and you won't ever have to worry about it. Quote
Cotton eyed Joe Posted January 5, 2006 Report Posted January 5, 2006 I bought the chrome Tag2's back in January of 04, and the chrome started to flake after my first ride. I figured I'd just polish them after it starts to really crack and look like shit. Right now you can't tell because of where its at. Sredish (is he still alive?) had the same problem as well. Quote
htown01shee Posted January 5, 2006 Author Report Posted January 5, 2006 It is starting to flake of right in the lower factory bend. The bars have never been bent or anything like that. It seems like they are flaking where they heated the bars to bend them. Either way that is pretty shi--y I emailed them and they basicly said they would not even look at them unless i had a reciept and then i would have to ship them to them and they would decide if they would exchange them. I bought the tag2 bars as a set with the lonestar steering stem. Is there any other bars that will work with the stem? if someone has a part# that will work for a polisehed or crome set let me know.
