Renthal 838-01 Vintage High Motorcycle Handlebars - Silver, Silver

The Renthal 838-01 Vintage High Motorcycle Handlebars let you change your riding position to a higher, more upright stance for day-to-day road and light off-road use. You use them to replace your standard bars with a 7/8in (22.2mm) braced aluminium handlebar that combines a vintage high bend profile with specific dimensions for width, rise and sweep to support relaxed, accurate control.Here are the key features of the Renthal 838-01 Vintage High handlebars and how they affect your setup:7010 T6 Aluminium 7/8in (22.2mm) Tube: This bar uses Renthal s exclusive 7010 T6 aluminium alloy in a 7/8in (22.2mm) diameter tube that is heat treated for high tensile strength and tuned to reduce vibration transfer through its structure, giving you a strong, relatively light handlebar that feels stable in your hands on longer rides.Vintage High Bend Dimensions (840mm Width, 155mm Height, 112mm Rise): The 840mm width, 155mm height and 112mm rise work together to place your hands higher and more open across the bike, which eases pressure on your lower back and shoulders so you can sit in a more upright and comfortable posture for steady riding on A-roads, lanes and light trails.88mm Sweep and 180mm Control Length: The 88mm sweep (pullback) and 180mm straight control sections on each side give you enough room to position your grips, levers, switches and handguards without crowding, helping you set up your controls neatly and maintain a neutral wrist angle that supports precise inputs at low and moderate speeds.170mm Clamp Width with Cross Brace: The 170mm clamping zone matches common 22.2mm bar clamps and carries a welded cross brace across the centre, increasing stiffness under heavy braking and standing-up riding so you experience direct steering response with less unwanted flex when you load the front end.Shot-Peened Finish and Foam Bar Pad: The shot-peened surface treatment relieves surface stresses in the aluminium to improve fatigue life and resistance to cracking, and the supplied injection-moulded foam bar pad covers the centre brace to reduce the chance of contact with hard metal in a knock, giving you a handlebar that stands up well to repeated use and adds a bit of impact protection around the clamp area.15-Stage Manufacturing Process: The bar goes through a controlled 15-stage manufacturing process in Renthal s own facility, including tube forming, bending, heat treatment and finishing, so you receive consistent dimensions and alignment that make fitting straightforward and help you line up both sides accurately on your yokes.With these handlebars you set up a riding position that suits steady cruising, filtering through town traffic and relaxed runs on country roads, keeping your upper body more natural and less hunched over. The measured rise, sweep and braced construction work together to give you a clear steering feel when you tip into bends, move your weight around the bike or stand up over rougher sections. As a durable 7/8in aluminium bar with a classic high bend and included pad, the Renthal 838-01 Vintage High is a practical addition to your motorcycle cockpit if you want a tidy, purposeful control layout that supports regular riding and simple future tweaks to your controls.
