Looks like Trust Bar is just another colour change, same bar as 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016... Now 2017.

And yet just about all other bars are still struggling to catch up. hard bar ends, centers that wear out, safety's that are still janky

There have been a few changes to the Trust bar over the 2013-2016.
2013->2014
Changed the insert attachment system to more durable and easier to change, and increased easy of flip flop floaters. I think also the swivel and IH got some subtle upgrades

2014->2015
Made flip flop floater even easier to use and changed to the single line flag out on four line bar. I think the inside alum bar diameter was decreased as well to allow for more EVA.

2015->2016
Lightening up the single line flag out system, almost just a color change.

2016->2017
Yup just a color change :P

Loving the new Rebel and Dice colors and patterning though. Wonder how they'll ride.

The rebel (on all sizes) has had the adaptive tips since the adaptive tip was released.
