Product Information
Full details
The Acerbis X-Elite handguards are designed for E-bike, MTB, and Minicross riders seeking a lightweight yet robust solution to protect their hands and handlebar controls from trail debris, low-hanging branches, and harsh weather. While they offer excellent impact resistance and a sleek profile, users should note that they are open-style guards and do not provide the full enclosure found in traditional motocross wrap-around bark busters.

FAQs
Are these suitable for full-size motocross bikes?
The X-Elite is optimized for E-bikes, MTBs, and Minicross. For full-size heavy motocross machines, we recommend traditional wrap-around handguards.
Do I need special tools for installation?
No, standard metric Allen keys are typically all that is required for the universal fixing bracelet.
Can I use these in the rain?
Yes, they are made from moisture-resistant, durable polymers that withstand all weather conditions.
Will these fit a carbon fiber handlebar?
Yes, they are compatible with most carbon bars, but ensure you do not over-tighten the mounting clamps to prevent crushing the carbon structure.
Are replacement parts available for the mounting kit?
Yes, Acerbis typically supports their products with individual spare parts; check with your local dealer or the Acerbis website.
Troubleshooting
Guard rotates during impact or rough riding
Ensure the mounting bracelet is tightened sufficiently and consider placing a small piece of rubber tape under the clamp to increase friction.
Interference with shifters or brake levers
Loosen the mounting bracelet and slide the guard slightly inward or outward along the handlebar until adequate clearance is achieved.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Extremely lightweight design prevents cockpit clutter
- Easy, universal installation process
- Provides essential protection for hands and handlebar controls
- Sleek aesthetics that blend well with modern E-bike and MTB designs
Cons
- Open-style design lacks the full enclosure of wrap-around guards
- Primarily focused on light trail debris rather than heavy impacts
- White color finish may show dirt and trail stains more easily
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the X-Elite is straightforward thanks to the included universal fixing bracelet. Simply position the guards at the desired angle on your handlebar, align the bracelet, and tighten the fasteners until secure. It is recommended to perform a 'fit check' before final tightening to ensure the guards do not strike your gear shifters or dropper post remotes when the bars are turned to the extremes. To care for your guards, use mild soap and water to clean the surface. Avoid using harsh solvents or high-pressure washers directly on the mounting hardware to prevent corrosion or plastic fatigue.
