Renthal Fatbar handlebar


MOTOCROSS MEETS MOUNTAIN biking in this ultimate brawler's bar. The 780mm width gives plenty of leverage for crowbarring your way out of high-load situations and the limited sweep and rise (20 and 38mm also available) give it a really aggressive feel.

The stiffness is outstanding too, delivering pin-sharp feedback from trail to glove. That makes it feel very firm on rocky trails or through braking bumps, though it shrugs off big hits more smoothly than you'd expect. The 198$ Fatbar Carbon is similarly authoritative but 137g lighter and takes the sting out of bigger hits better as well.
