Description
Renthal’s Road Bar Cross Brace in gold is a simple bolt-on upgrade that stiffens up a 7/8 inch road bar setup while giving the cockpit a cleaner, more finished look than a bare bar. It is a purpose-built part, not a universal clamp, so it is worth confirming compatibility before you buy rather than assuming any Renthal bar will accept it.
What you get with this brace
- Gold finish matches Renthal’s road bar hardware for a cleaner cockpit look
- Adds a cross brace connection point that stiffens the bar under load
- Designed specifically for use with Renthal 7/8 inch road bars
- Not compatible with the Street Fatbar range, or with the 658-02 or 749-02 bar part numbers
Before ordering, confirm your bar is a standard Renthal 7/8 inch road bar and not one of the Street Fatbar variants noted above, since the mounting geometry is different and the brace will not sit correctly on those bars. IPD Racing sells this alongside the compatible Renthal road bar line, so if you are unsure which bar you have, send us the part number and we will confirm fit before you order.
Cosmetic upgrades on a bike that gets ridden hard need to earn their place, and this brace does double duty by tightening up bar flex at the same time it cleans up the look of the cockpit. It is a small part, but on a bike where every touchpoint gets scrutinized, it is one of the easier ways to finish off a build.
