![Renthal Introduces Fatbar36 Handlebar](http://rxi.iscdn.net/2020/01/196322_lightestsc.jpg)
From Renthal:
Working alongside our factory race teams we developed the concept to improve performance through weight reduction without compromising existing handlebar strength. Every time you accelerate, brake, corner, jump you work against the weight of the motorcycle. By reducing weight, it improves the performance of your motorcycle in all of these areas resulting in faster lap times.
Renthal has employed its 50+ years of experience in handlebar design, testing and racing to develop the R-Works Fatbar36 the ultimate in lightweight motocross handlebars. Utilizing Renthal’s 36Tech™ handlebar standard and proprietary Zarilium® material to give a high strength handlebar at the lowest possible weight. The R-Works Fatbar®36 is 36% lighter than our standard 28mm diameter Fatbar®, previously the lightest motocross handlebar.
36TECH™ - Advanced Technology
36TECH™ is a new handlebar standard developed by Renthal to push forward the boundaries of handlebar technology. The 36mm clamping diameter tapers down to a conventional 22mm control section at each end, using advanced wall geometry, maximising material efficiencies in wall thickness along the entire length of the handlebar to reduce weight.
New Material – 20% Stronger
Zarilium® is a new aluminium alloy exclusive to Renthal. This new alloy has 20% greater ultimate tensile strength, while maintaining the same elongation properties. This additional strength has allowed Renthal to achieve the maximum weight reduction possible whilst matching the best in class strength of the Renthal® 28mm diameter Fatbar®.
World Class Testing
Renthal is at the forefront of handlebar testing. The only handlebar manufacturer using data acquisition and equipped with it’s own in house test facility. This perfectly positions Renthal to maximize its 50+ years of handlebar design, development and championship winning race experience. The result is the best performing handlebars with unrivaled quality.
