• About this item 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 – 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 - -peening and anodizing enhances igue life even further; adjustable to 760mm; MGR Super 6 Alloy; 4 deg. up x 8 deg. back; peen anodized finish, decal logos.

SPANK SPIKE 800 BICYCLE HANDLEBAR World Cup quality performance, developed with the pros. SPANK Industries' legendary SPIKE 800 Race handlebar is the 5th generation of the SPIKE Race handlebar legacy, developed in coordination with some of the world’s top DH and Enduro pros. A unique construction of Super 6 alloy, processed with SPANK’s patented CNC bending and XGT technology makes the SPIKE 800 Race handlebar a stronger, safer, performance optimized component for the weight conscious gravity rider. The race tuned geometry and competitive weight make this bar the perfect solution for AM/Enduro to Downhill Race. SPANK's SPIKE 800 Race is the handlebar of choice for Nicholi Rogatkin, Thomas Genon, Tomas Zejda and many more. Dual XGT (Extreme Gradual Taper) Technology: This is a proprietary tube drawing process that tapers the bars from the thickest area at the bar clamping zone, slowly and gradually through the bend zones, to the thinnest areas at the control zones and back to thicker reinforced bar end zones, or “Impact Ends”. Spank has utilized FEA (Finite Element Analysis), laboratory, and rigorous real world testing to optimise the spread of material to where it is needed to withstand the specific forces at work in each zone, while offering better protection against ces than ever before! The extreme precision enabled by Dual XGT drawing processes also eliminates the need for heavy hand grinding, which can result in imperfections and inconsistency in wall thickness. Super-6 Aluminium: This is a specially blended, highly magnesium-silicon enriched, work hardened alloy. Super-6 offers the perfect mix of hardness, yield, igue life, and a superior ultimate tensile strength to standard 6 series alloys. It is ideal for the creation of thin walled, super stiff handlebars. Through recent adoption of Super-6 materials, Spank’s Spike handlebars are now stronger and show greater resistance to deformation than ever before!
