Identifying Which Flexx Bar Bend You Have

Identifying Which Flexx Bar Bend You Have

Can't remember which Flexx Bar bend you run? There’s no part number on the bar that will tell you exactly which bend you have, but just a few quick measurements will determine your exact bend.

Back Sweep

Let’s start with the sweep stamp. Where the ⅞” handle presses into the dog leg, there’s a sweep stamp on that dog leg indicating the degree of back sweep. The sweep stamp is anodized over so you may need some good lighting to see it clearly. The stamp should either be a 10, 12, 14, 15 or 19. Below is a photo of a 15 degree bar for clarification with the sweep stamp circled in red.


Height

Next is the height. We offer three different bar heights: 63mm, 92mm, and 116mm tall. These three bars are referred to as the Low, Standard, and Tall bars. Photos are below for clarification.

Pictured above is our Tall bar, measuring 116mm in height. Notice the bolt heads (circled in red) of the elastomer bolts. The bolt heads sit about an inch above the 1 1/8” mounting or center tube. This is the easiest way to visually determine which bar height you have.

Pictured above is our Standard height bar, measuring 92mm in height. This bar is similar to most stock bar heights on modern day off road bikes. Notice the head of the elastomer bolt (circled in red). Unlike the Tall bar, there is no gap between the 1 1/8” mounting tube and the head of the bolt. In fact, the head of the bolt is cut and rests on the 1 1/8” center tube.

Pictured above is our Low bar, 63mm in height. The elastomer bolt on the low bar runs from the outside of the bar and threads into the center tube. This is the main identifying feature of the Low bar.

Width

The last measurement we need is the width. We have 4 width options: Mini (29"), Enduro/Quad (31"), Moto (32"), and Adventure (32.5"). As you can see in the images below, we measure straight across, end to end. The bar on the top is the 31" wide Enduro Bar while the bar on the bottom is the 32" wide moto bar.

Now that you have the sweep, width, and height, you can determine which Flexx Bar bend you have. For example, 15 degree (º) Moto Standard, or 12º Enduro/Quad High. Or perhaps a 15º Enduro/Quad Low. Determine the sweep, then the height, and then the width.
