Extended Product Information
FAQs
What makes the Twinwall design stronger than standard handlebars?
The Twinwall design uses two aluminum tubes, one nested inside the other. This construction significantly increases rigidity and resistance to bending and breaking compared to single-wall handlebars.
Is the McGrath Bend suitable for all riding styles?
The McGrath Bend is designed for an aggressive, forward riding position common in motocross. Riders who prefer a more upright stance might find other Renthal bends more suitable.
Do I need special clamps for these handlebars?
Yes, Renthal Twinwall handlebars typically require specific clamps designed to accommodate their larger diameter and dual-tube construction. Always check compatibility with your motorcycle's triple clamps.
What material is used for the Renthal 999 Twinwall handlebars?
The outer tube is constructed from 7010 T73 aluminum alloy, known for its high strength and durability.
Are these handlebars recommended for casual trail riding?
While their durability is beneficial, the specific 'McGrath Bend' geometry is optimized for performance motocross. For casual trail riding, riders might prefer a different bend for comfort.
How do I clean the black finish without damaging it?
Use a soft cloth with warm water and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean, soft towel. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
What is the warranty period for Renthal handlebars?
Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer. Renthal products are known for their quality, but please refer to your point of purchase for specific warranty details.
Troubleshooting
Handlebars feel misaligned after installation
Loosen handlebar clamp bolts slightly, re-center the handlebars, and retighten bolts evenly to the correct torque specification.
Controls do not fit correctly
Ensure you are using the correct diameter clamps for the Twinwall system. Some controls may require modification or specific adapters if the inner tube diameter differs from standard bars.
Scratching or damage to the black finish
Clean gently with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Minor scratches are cosmetic and do not affect structural integrity.
