Description
The Renthal Fatbar Carbon is the new DH race handlebar. The new handlebar is the result of an intense and in-depth research and development program; this handlebar refines riding thanks to the characteristics of strength, stiffness, and shock absorption guaranteed by the material itself.
The light weight of this brand new Fatbar Carbon makes it ideal for use on trail bikes, where a super-wide handlebar is required. The Carbon handlebar is the best handlebar ever. The Fatbar Carbon uses a full UD (unidirectional) carbon structure. The efficient placement and orientation of the unidirectional carbon fibers maximize strength and optimize the handlebar's stiffness. The UD (unidirectional) carbon fibers are layered and aligned to provide specific flex characteristics. The riding-optimized stiffness of the Fatbar Carbon translates into incredible control, but careful tuning offers the perfect level of comfort. Impact resistance is extremely important in a DH race handlebar. This is why the Fatbar Carbon is designed to significantly exceed the EN BMX drop test standard.
