Description of ๐Ÿš€ Unleash Your Race Potential with the Spank Spike 800: 5th Gen XGT MTB Handlebar

GREAT DESIGN - DH World Cup tested and approved alloy handlebar in its 5th generation - patented bending and tapering technologies result in exceptional strength and performance. IMPACT ENDS โ€“ The Impact Ends reduce the chance of collapse in areas where the wall is thinner and in heavy impacts; these can also be used to support bar ends in the relevant disciplines. DUAL XGT - Dual Extreme Gradual Taper technology is a proprietary tube drawing process; it tapers bars from the thickest area at the bar clamping zone, through the bend zones, to the thinnest areas at the control zones and back to thicker barend zones. CNC BENDING - Spank uses automated 3D CNC bending machines, which offer better symmetry and consistency and limit material structural damage; it eliminates heavy grinding processes, making bars lighter, stronger, and safer. FEATURES - Shot-peening and anodizing enhances fatigue life even further; adjustable to 760mm; MGR Super 6 Alloy; 4 deg. up x 8 deg. back; shotpeen anodized finish, decal logos.

Thought I'd get a vibro core

Too bad I didn't read the title. Foam sticks with no vibration control that work just as well as regular sticks BUT use foam sticks. turned my sore hands into happy ones.

I've been beaten up!: Bars, Headsets & Stems

the green here on Amazon looks to me like neon green which is near my bike when I took the bars out of the box and was very disappointed they were 5 shades darker than the picture, more like an olive green yuk yuk!

  • I don't remember

Good bars. - Sport

As described, this is my second bar from them. The slope is perfect, the span is good, the color is on point. I'll say it though, everyone says it comes with wing-like packaging. This is my second car in a standard box without fenders. Some may have it, some may not, if it's a tipping point for choosing this handlebar, remember there's a 50/50 chance you'll get the wing.

Pros
  • Cycling
Cons
  • Very expensive

Smooth! Lightweight and matte

Rebuilt Fuji 2011 3x8 into 1x12 paired with the same blue SAPLIZE grips and gray FUNN 50mm stem. The blue is more like sky blue than Fuji ocean blue (picture), I was hoping it would match. However, the mat looks sick and smooth, I can rock ads, light weight, just walks away from the look, let me work on it a bit, post another review. Honestly, IMO, C-Pit looks sick. Not all.

Great bars at reasonable prices.

I received blue in the specification of 50r. I've ridden almost flat bars most of my life, but in the last few years I've switched to mountain/downhill riding and it has completely changed the feel of the bike, especially on steep descents. more confident and controllable (while on steep descents flat bars can give you a better feeling going over the bars, not to mention the overall more comfortable riding position. Feels more like riding a dirt bike. The steering really feels on flat trailsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sports and outdoor activities
Cons
  • Minor issues
