Yep. I got 'em because they looked strong and I liked how they attached at the handlebar clamp instead of on the handlebar itself. But the first time I dropped my bike on the trail the left guard hit a rock and bent just enough that now at full lock the HB guard touches the windscreen. Pretty annoying.
Your bike looks pretty good! I think the black bars look fine, practically invisible. All your bike needs now is some dirt and miles!
