    My XC bikes are all about 700mm or so with 100 or 110mm stems. 6' tall. I balance wider bars and clearing trees on tight twisty singletrack trails.

    currently i have 710mm bar on a 70mm stem. With my new fork i can finally get the height to my liking. Thinking of going to a 50mm stem though since ill be a little more upright.

    If you drop down to a 50mm stem, maybe try a 740-760mm bar. You can always cut it shorter if it's too wide.

    I ride 740mm bars renthal fat bar lite with a 60mm stem and I'm 5'11"

    I'd go 750-760 but some trails I ride have spots with trees a little too close together haha

    785mm Atlas bars with a 50mm stem. Pros to living in basically a desert. Went up from a 750mm bar and honestly didn't feel much of a difference.

    Yeah.
    I have 720's on two bikes and another with 750's. I like the 750 better, but it depends on the cockpit geometry.

    My Atlas bars came in 785 but I couldn't clear the bridge on my local trail and tons of trees. Went down over time and am now at 725 and it gets me through everywhere I ride so far even if barely. Not fun catching a tree on a downhill hauling butt. I'm currently on a 50mm stem but am fixing to go to at least a 70mm to try and get over the front wheel a little more. I find that when I'm trying to get up short steep hills/inclines with roots or trees involved that I'm too far back and lose my momentum. I've only been into this about 3 years but that's what I think the issue is. That and my lack of skill
