can we get a link/pic of these new bars and stem?

ive ran 10s and 11s, and had no problems with bars slipping. i dont go very big while riding mind, plus theyre s&m bars and the tubing is super thick

Engineers correct me if I'm wrong, but to me the 1" clamp area seems like a great idea.I'm not terribly hard on my parts, but deformed clamp areas and slipping stems are something I still deal with. As bars get taller and more leverage is applied to the stem, going up to 1" just makes sense.
I had a pair of 1" Strip bars with the 1" grip tubes but the clamp area was  the standard 7/8" which was odd. Diatech made some 1" brake levers--Tech 99 I believe, or you could run filed out Tech 77s.

The larger OD the tubing, the more it resists bending and twisting, but the more likely it is to be dented or crushed

It'll be subjective though.

My favorite bar ever was the complete opposite. I rode a KHE Phil Dohlan 9" aluminium bar for light street (held up for years) and it had 1" grip area and 7/8 stem diameter. It started slipping when the knurling went away so couldnt ride them anymore

Just cracked my Eclat forks so I don't think this appeals to me. However another company making limited run frames is pretty cool. I think S&M is making them but I am not sure. King's is one of those staple shops so big ups to them to keeping the scene moving.
