The tapered aero-shaped tubing and internal bracing optimize stiffness and strength for competitive BMX racing without a rider weight limit. UD carbon fiber—where all fibers run in parallel direction—delivers lightweight rigidity comparable to aerospace and high-performance automotive applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUD (uni-directional) carbon fiber\u003c\/strong\u003e — All fibers aligned in parallel direction maximizes strength and stiffness while minimizing weight; provides superior rigidity compared to multi-directional weaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal carbon cross reinforcement\u003c\/strong\u003e — Structural support running from the upper bend area through the clamping zone significantly increases overall stiffness without adding external weight or compromising the clean design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapered aero-shaped tubing\u003c\/strong\u003e — Streamlined tube profile reduces air resistance while adding structural rigidity; creates distinctive visual aesthetic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMatte carbon finish with color graphic\u003c\/strong\u003e — Durable carbon weave visible finish; graphics applied for visual identity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRacing-focused design\u003c\/strong\u003e — Engineered for maximum performance in competitive applications without weight restrictions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: UD (uni-directional) carbon fiber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Matte carbon with color graphic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRise: 8.0\" (203.2mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 28.5\" (723.9mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack sweep: 10°\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp sweep: 2°\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClamp diameter: 31.8mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrip diameter: 22.2mm (standard)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 470g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight limit: None specified — racing application only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes: Carbon fiber grip assembly gel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility \u0026amp; Ideal Use Cases\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStem compatibility: 31.8mm clamp diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrip compatibility: 22.2mm standard BMX grips; standard brake levers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest for: BMX racing; competitive riders; high-performance racing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal use: Competition racing; riders seeking maximum stiffness and responsiveness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplication: Racing only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePair with a compatible 31.8mm stem and standard 22.2mm BMX grips.
