Race Face SixC Handlebar
Best lightweight carbon handlebar for aggressive downhill riders.
This is the rare carbon cockpit upgrade that balances downhill-rated durability with a weight so low it feels like cheating. You get the stiffness needed for aggressive, high-speed lines without the usual penalty of a heavy, overbuilt front end. It’s the ultimate choice for riders who refuse to compromise on strength but still want a nimble, responsive bike.
