Just a small correction, but the stock 16v bar is 23.5-24mm in diameter.
Note that the first step-up for rear bars is 25mm from the tuners that
offer the A1 bars.  I would agree adding a 28mm would hurt anything,
but it would make handling somewhat different.  It all depends on how
you drive, and what you're comfortable with.

later!
