Spank industries developed this bar along with some of the world’s top DH and Enduro pros and utilised a unique construction of Super-6™ aluminium, Spank’s patented CNC bending, and their Dual-Extreme-Gradual Taper (XGT) technology. Performance Optimised Race Bar The result of this collaboration and advanced construction has resulted in a handlebar that is stronger, safer and performance optimised. The Spank Spike 800 Race has an ideal geometry for control and a low weight, making it perfect for aggressive All Mountain (AM), Enduro or Downhill (DH) Racing. 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 crashes 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. 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 CNC Bending The precision of 3D CNC Bending in a single fixture allows Spank to optimise their designs further and eliminate the heavy grinding process, making their bars lighter, stronger, and safer! Spank has also taken extra work hardening steps to ensure the stem clamping area of the bar is uniformly cylindrical and true, and as tough as possible Super-6 Aluminium This is a specially blended, highly magnesium-silicon enriched, work-hardened alloy. Super-6 offers the perfect mix of hardness, yield, fatigue 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 the recent adoption of Super-6 materials, Spank’s Spike, Subrosa, and Oozy handlebars are now stronger and show greater resistance to deformation than ever before!
The denser a material, the higher its ability to transmit energy waves. Alloys have a very high density, and in turn, transmit vibrational energy very effectively. Vibrocore is a complex, low-density material which fills the core of the Spank SPIKE 800 Race Vibrocore handlebar, reducing the frequency, amplitude, and duration of energy waves. Not only does the low density of the Vibrocore foam impede the transfer of energy, but as energy waves cross material boundaries from high density to low density, they are refracted and reflected (basically bounced in different directions), reducing their ability to build on one another or sustain vibrational frequencies. Testing of the Spank SPIKE 800 Race Vibrocore bar with World Cup downhill (DH) racers like Mick and Tracey Hannah has shown that by reducing the "white noise" vibration from riding, Vibrocore handlebars enhance tactile sensitivity between rider, bike and terrain while reducing fatigue. When races are won or lost by milliseconds, this can make all the difference.
Steering you between the trees and across the mountain, this riser bar is equipped with a tough alloy construction for enduring the intensity of all-day epics. Spank has also gone the extra distance by putting this trail-ready riser bar through a shot-peening and anodising process. This gives it an extra layer of durability as well as protection against corrosion on the wettest of rides. Perfect for riding in all weather conditions, this riser bar gives you precise steering on the most demanding of mountain bike trails.
Filled with an innovative Vibrocore foam, this Spank Flare 25 bar limits harmful vibrations while improving strength and longevity from the inside out. Built from a special Zirconium-Doped 7-Series alloy, it is designed with a round profile upper section which facilitates a wide range of rider/hand positions, while the 25-degree flare in the drops gives you plenty of room and support when riding low. Additional Bar Width Information: Width Between Bar Ends: 420mm: 562mm; 440mm: 582mm; 460mm: 602mm; 480mm: 622mm; 500mm: 642mm; 520mm: 662mm
The Spank SPOON handlebar has been specially designed with the thrill-seekers and mountain bike (MTB) enthusiasts in mind for an extremely versatile handlebar, whether you're riding in the park or on the trail. It's more than capable of handling all the sudden impacts and bumps that come with shredding the MTB trails. To top it off, this state-of-the-art bar boasts a shot-penning and anodised finish which reduces fatigue and provides long-lasting comfort on every ride.
One of the most common complaints of young riders is that adult grips position their hands too far from the controls, making them move their hands around while riding or risk pinching fingers in brakes. These Spank Spoon grips alleviate this issue, putting their hands in the right place every time, and allowing them to set up their handlebar controls to achieve the most comfortable grip when cycling.
This Spank SPOON 800 MTB riser bar features a tough alloy construction, which makes it more than capable of handling all the sudden impacts and bumps that come with shredding the mountain bike trails. Spank has also put this trail-ready handlebar through a shot-peening and anodising process. This gives it an extra layer of durability and corrosion resistance, so you can benefit from its incredible strength in all-weather conditions. Plus, its huge amount of rise makes it ideal for downhill (DH) riding where you need to position yourself over the back wheel for extreme descents and drops.
The limited-edition Spank Vibrocore 800 bar boasts a downhill (DH) Race tuned award-winning alloy design that's injected with proprietary foam called Vibrocore. This material provides exceptional vibration damping to reduce arm pump and hand-numbness for a more comfortable ride. This state-of-the-art bar offers increased strength and stiffness compared to conventional alloy bars, so you can stay at the top of your game. Adjustable Mountain Bike Bar To top it off, the adjustable design of the Spank SPIKE 800 vibrocore handlebar means you can customise its length by cutting it down from 800mm down to 740mm to suit your riding preference.
