Product Information
Full details
The Renthal Twinwall McGrath Bend Handlebar is designed for motocross and enduro riders who prioritize structural integrity and precise handling above all else. Its signature double-walled design provides industry-leading strength and impact resistance, making it an ideal upgrade for competitive riders tackling demanding terrain. While the robust construction offers unmatched durability during heavy landings and crashes, the added stiffness compared to single-wall bars may lead to increased rider fatigue for those who prefer a more flexible front-end feel.

FAQs
Does this handlebar fit all motocross bikes?
It fits most modern motocross bikes, provided they are equipped with 1-1/8 inch (oversized) bar mounts.
Why is the Twinwall stiffer than other bars?
The double-wall construction is intentionally designed for maximum strength and rigidity, which reduces flex during high-impact situations.
Can I use standard 7/8 inch grips with these bars?
Yes, the ends of the handlebar are standard size, meaning all industry-standard grips will fit correctly.
What is the McGrath bend?
It is a specific geometry that features a lower rise and specific sweep, optimized for precise handling and a more aggressive rider position.
How often should I replace my Twinwall handlebars?
While highly durable, you should replace the bars immediately if you notice any visible deformation, cracking, or deep stress marks after a crash.
Troubleshooting
Handlebars feel too stiff or cause arm pump
Check your suspension settings; stiff bars amplify the need for proper fork compression and rebound tuning.
Controls are sliding or rotating on the bar surface
Clean the bar surface with contact cleaner to remove grease and use a small amount of non-slip grip compound on the mounting area.
Corrosion spots appearing on the orange finish
Gently clean the affected area and apply a light silicone-based spray to protect the anodized surface.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Exceptional durability due to double-walled tube architecture
- Precision handling provided by the professional McGrath bend
- Corrosion-resistant finish maintains appearance over time
- High impact resistance for competitive motocross and enduro use
Cons
- Increased stiffness may result in more vibration transfer to hands
- Limited flex compared to standard 7/8 inch handlebars
- Requires matching oversized handlebar mounts for installation
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install these handlebars, ensure your motorcycle is equipped with 1-1/8 inch (oversized) handlebar mounts, as the Twinwall diameter is incompatible with standard 7/8 inch mounts. When mounting your controls, use a light coat of assembly lube if necessary, but avoid over-tightening the clutch and brake perches to prevent stress risers on the aluminum surface.
For maintenance, periodically inspect the bar for deep gouges or signs of bending after major crashes. Because of the anodized orange finish, avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or steel wool, which can strip the protective layer and lead to oxidation. Use a mild soap and water solution to clean the bars and periodically check that all bar-end plugs are secure to prevent debris entry.
