Product Information
Full details
The Burgtec RideWide DH Handlebar is designed for downhill mountain bikers and aggressive trail riders who prioritize structural integrity and precise steering control. Featuring a wide 800mm span and MotoX-tested durability, this handlebar minimizes rider fatigue through its optimized geometry; however, its rigid construction and wide profile may feel overly stiff or cumbersome for riders focused strictly on lightweight cross-country discipline.

FAQs
Can I cut the handlebars to my preferred length?
Yes, the handlebar features clear cut-down marks specifically intended for riders to trim the bar to their preferred width.
Is this bar compatible with 31.8mm stems?
No, this specific model requires a stem with a 35mm clamp diameter.
What is the material composition?
The Burgtec RideWide DH Handlebar is constructed from high-grade aluminum alloy to meet MotoX safety standards.
Are these bars suitable for trail or enduro bikes?
Yes, they are suitable for trail and enduro riding, provided your stem is compatible with the 35mm diameter.
How often should I replace my handlebars?
It is recommended to inspect for deep gouges or bending after every major crash; replace immediately if you detect any structural damage.
Troubleshooting
Handlebar slips or rotates inside the stem
Clean the clamping area with isopropyl alcohol and re-torque the stem bolts to the specified value.
Difficulty achieving comfortable hand angle
Loosen stem bolts slightly to rotate the bar forward or backward until the sweep feels neutral, then re-torque.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Superior strength for aggressive downhill and jump sessions
- Ergonomic sweep angles significantly reduce arm and hand fatigue
- Clear trimming guides ensure easy customization
- Professional-grade durability tested to motorcycle safety standards
Cons
- 800mm width may be too wide for riders on tight, tree-lined trails without trimming
- High-stiffness design may transmit more trail feedback to the rider than flexible bars
- Weight reflects heavy-duty downhill construction rather than lightweight efficiency
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure your stem is compatible with a 35mm handlebar clamp diameter before installation. When mounting, use a torque wrench to follow the stem manufacturer’s specific torque settings to avoid crushing the alloy. It is recommended to use a thin layer of carbon-paste if installing on a carbon stem to ensure a slip-free fit.
For care, periodically inspect the handlebar for deep scratches or impacts after heavy crashes, as these can compromise structural integrity. Clean the bars with mild soap and water to remove trail grime and corrosive sweat residue. Never use abrasive chemicals that could damage the finish.
