S&M Race XLT Handlebar

The 4Q Baked heat treatment process significantly increases the strength and rigidity of the chromoly steel after welding. This ensures the bars can handle the high-impact forces of competitive racing without bending or fatiguing prematurely.

With a 0-inch rise, these bars keep your front end low and aggressive. This setup is ideal for racers who want to keep their weight centered over the front wheel for better traction and more efficient power transfer out of the gate.

The 29.5-inch width provides a stable, wide platform that offers excellent leverage for handling and control at high speeds. If you find this too wide for your specific riding style or shoulder width, the bars can be trimmed down to your preferred length.

At 990 grams, these chromoly steel bars are heavier than typical aluminum handlebars. However, you are trading that extra weight for the superior durability and vibration-dampening characteristics that steel provides, which many racers prefer for a more solid, predictable feel.

The 4-degree upsweep and 8-degree backsweep are designed to align your wrists in a natural, ergonomic position. This geometry helps reduce fatigue during long sessions and provides a comfortable, locked-in feel when you are pulling up on the bars.
