The Tangent Vortex Expert Alloy Bars (4.5" Rise, Black) are specialized, lightweight aluminum handlebars explicitly engineered for BMX racing. Designed for younger, expert-level racers, these bars deliver optimal frontend height adjustment and maximum steering precision, all while minimizing weight.
Core Technical Specifications
Material Construction: Crafted from premium, heat-treated 6061-T6 butted alloy to optimize strength-to-weight performance.
Rise: 4.5 inches (ideal for stepping up from mini or junior setups).
Weight: Explicitly lightweight at exactly 336 grams.
Rider Weight Limit: Strictly rated for a maximum rider weight of 110 lbs (50 kg).
Key Performance Highlights
Targeted Ergonomics: The 4.5" rise helps intermediate youth riders maintain a balanced, aggressive racing stance as they grow out of smaller flat or mini bars.
Advanced Alloy Butting: Varying the wall thickness across the tubing keeps the central clamping stress zones incredibly rigid while dropping material weight at the bar ends.
Heat-Treated Rigidity: T-6 aircraft-grade heat treatment ensures these bars won't flex or bend under hard gate snaps and landing loads.
Whether you're upgrading your BMX setup or looking for handlebars that offer precision and durability, these bars are a perfect choice for expert-level riders.
