I have one sitting in my parts bin. Never used it though.
If anyone wants to buy it I'll sell it super cheap.

They're these but in orange:
Review: Syncros' Hixon SL IC Integrated Carbon Bar & Stem - Pinkbike
Syncros' carbon fiber Hixon SL IC one-piece stem and handlebar combo is ultra-light, strange looking, expensive, and sure to divide opinion.
SCOTT Genius 900 Tuned AXS on test – the XC machine among trail bikes
The SCOTT Genius 900 Tuned is a perennial contender of our group tests. That’s no wonder given that the bike was considered one of the most progressive models on the market when it was launched in June 2017. Three years have gone by since. Can the bike still convince our test crew? Click here...

I went full Dangerholm on them this afternoon and stripped the paint off. Suffice to say I won't be selling them anymore lol.
They were a throw in on my Ranger frame so I figured this was a good opportunity to try it out.
I was never putting this on one of my bikes lol

LOL! Oh well... my team colors are black and orange, so the color didn't bother me - although I've learned over the years matching orange is effing hard...
Regardless... still interested if you decide you don't like them. I'm pondering a stupid-light XC hardtail build and these would work well.

My LBS sells Scott bikes and they said the cable integration feature on these integrated bars requires frame and headset design elements that the Spark has but they don't have experience installing them on non-Scotts. If you had this on a Ranger did you have cables outside?
That's what I'm gonna be putting them on myself, they're 250g now... pray for my teeth 🙏.
This appears to be pre-headset routing nonsense since it's from 2020.
FWIW, you can always run the cables normal regardless of the frame / bars

Have you considered maybe spraying them (or it, I don't remember what was the general consensus on this one) with a specific clearcoat? Not sure if raw carbon fiber deals nicely with elements...maybe just don ride the bike below freezing temperature? 😀
Yup! I actually just ordered the 2k coat for that purpose exactly. Waiting for the weather to allow me to do it outside since it's nasty stuff.
