The Spank SPIKE 800 Race bar has been developed along with some of the World’s top downhill (DH) and Enduro pros and utilised a unique construction of Super-6™ aluminium, Spank’s patented CNC bending, and its Dual-Extreme-Gradual Taper (XGT) technology. Performance Optimised Race Bar The result of this collaboration and advanced construction has meant that the Spank SPIKE 800 Race handlebar 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.
This riser bar features a tough alloy construction, which makes it more than ready to handle all the abuse from the most aggressive off-road rides. Spank has also put this sleek version through a shot-peening and anodising process to give it another layer of durability and corrosion resistance. This makes it suitable for riding in all-weather conditions.
This MTB riser bar features a hard-wearing alloy construction, which makes it perfect at withstanding all the abuse that's associated with all-day epics in the mountains. Spank has also equipped this trail-ready handlebar with a shot-peened and anodised finish, which means that you'll benefit from its extra layer of durability and corrosion resistance. This makes it an ideal choice of upgrade for riders who don't let the elements to stand in their way. - Freeride inspired all mountain suitable geometry makes the bar extremely versatile - Rock solid in the park or on the trail - Cost effective upgrade to your cockpit without sacrificing quality - Shot-peening and anodizing enhances fatigue life even further

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.

Ready for the most demanding of terrains, this MTB riser bar features a carbon construction that makes it more than cable of enduring all the challenges that are associated with gravity riding. Using Plastic Foam Lamination (PFL) manufacturing processes, this trail-ready model utilises tiny particles and steam pressure in the lamination process to expand and shape the structure of the bars. The process uses less excess resin and fewer ply's, resulting in a 15% lighter bar. ProTaper has also equipped this model with an 810mm width as well as cut marks for riders who want to cut it to suit their riding style. Coming complete with a Textured Grit Grip finish in its clamping areas, this riser bar eliminates the over-tightening of components.
