S&M 7" Big Bruiser Bar BMX Handlebars

Product Overview

The S&M Big Bruiser Bar is a 4130 chromoly handlebar featuring 7" rise and 30" width for street, park, and aggressive freestyle riding. Built from straight gauge chromoly tubing with 10° back sweep and 1.5° upsweep, this bar provides strong, reliable performance at 2.0 lbs. Designed for riders who want mid-rise positioning with S&M's proven durability.

Key Features

• 4130 chromoly construction – Heat-treatable chromoly steel tubing provides high strength and durability for aggressive riding and hard impacts
• Straight gauge tubing – Consistent wall thickness throughout the bar offers predictable strength characteristics and durability
• 7" rise – Mid-height rise (177.8mm) balances upright positioning with lower profile compared to tall 9"+ bars; suits most riding styles
• 30" width – 762mm width provides leverage for control and stability; can be cut down for narrower preference
• 10° back sweep – Moderate backward angle positions hands comfortably and reduces wrist strain during extended sessions
• 1.5° upsweep – Subtle upward angle provides natural wrist positioning without excessive bend
• 0.750" crossbar – Reinforced crossbar section adds torsional stiffness and strength to the bar's center section

Compatibility and Ideal Use Cases

These bars fit BMX stems—verify your stem's clamp diameter (25.4mm standard or 31.8mm oversized) as the product description doesn't specify the bar's clamp section diameter. The 22.2mm grip area is standard across all BMX bars and fits all BMX grips. The 7" rise suits riders approximately 5'6" to 6'2" who want comfortable, slightly upright positioning without excessive height—taller riders may prefer 8-9" rise, while shorter riders might choose 6-7" options. The 30" width can be cut down using a pipe cutter or hacksaw with guide—always cut equally from both sides to maintain center positioning and balance. Best suited for street riding, park sessions, and trail riding where the 7" rise provides good visibility and control without feeling too tall or too low. The straight gauge chromoly construction prioritizes durability over weight savings—at 2.0 lbs these bars are heavier than butted chromoly or heat-treated options but offer consistent strength throughout. The 0.750" crossbar adds stiffness for riders who load bars heavily during tricks or aggressive maneuvers. The moderate 10° back sweep and minimal 1.5° upsweep create comfortable wrist positioning for most riders without extreme angles. Ideal for intermediate to advanced riders who want proven S&M quality and geometry that works across multiple riding disciplines.
