While it is built for durability, the Descendant is specifically engineered for aggressive gravity and downhill riding. At 431 grams, it is heavier than typical cross-country bars, so you may find it overkill unless you prioritize downhill stability over climbing efficiency.

Yes, the 800mm width can be trimmed to your preferred length. Most riders use a standard pipe cutter or a hacksaw with a guide to shorten it, but be sure to measure twice before cutting.
