Description
The SX Race bend is ProTaper’s answer to a general-purpose supercross and motocross setup, and this Black version of the Contour handlebar puts that bend on an oversized 5 mm bar built to survive whoops sections and hard landings without flattening out.
What makes it worth the swap:
- Built from 5 mm-wall, 2000 series T6 aluminum alloy for a real jump in tensile and yield strength over generic replacement bars
- Oversized 1-1/8 in. body soaks up chatter and repeated impacts instead of transmitting them straight into your wrists
- Tuned flex characteristics cut arm pump on long motos without turning the bar soft or noodly
- Full color-matched finish holds up to grip wear, fuel spills, and pressure washing
- Direct bolt-in replacement for stock oversized clamps, no adapters needed
It is a solid pick for riders who want one dependable bend that works across most stock cockpits rather than chasing a specialty geometry.
Riders replacing a bent or fatigued stock bar tend to notice the difference most in braking bumps and square-edge hits, where the extra wall thickness and alloy grade keep the bar from folding under repeated load.
Fitment: Handlebar – Contour SX Race Black. Part number 022027, sold by IPD Racing.
