We’ve heard from our friends over at Farr, the Western Australian company who manufacture all things bicycle. They’ve been growing their BMX range and have a new oversized 31.8mm handlebar & stem combo that’s just about ready for release. They worked with UCI World Championships Junior Elite finalist Jordan Callum to get this off the ground, Jordon has been using the prototypes for months now.

Manufacturer’s Description

It’s no secret that the 31.8mm oversize standard is stiffer than the traditional 22.2mm used in the past.

With quite a few brands now offering 31.8 as their default option for adult riders, we wanted to take the concept even further.

Having already seen the strength and rigidity benefits of widening the clamping area with our HeadSpace range of stems for MTB, we knew there could be a performance benefit for BMXers.

Today’s PRO riders are putting their equipment to the test in ways not seen in the past. These demands coupled with modern riding styles and techniques mean that a stiff and precise front-end is not only essential but also beneficial for faster and more efficient lap times!

With our new SUPA-X handlebar we have taken the oversize and stiff concept to the next level …. Featuring the widest 31.8mm clamping area in the market these bars are ready to attack the track!

We worked with Jordan Callum on this concept and developed a Signature Model based on his preference for width, rise and sweep.

Featuring triple butted 4130 chromoly tubing coupled with our exclusive bending molds, these bars are unlike any others on the market.

Compatible with all 31.8mm stems … we do however suggest matching them to our SUPA-X stems, which are in the works, for the ultimate stiffness gains!
