Increasing in width to 800mm but retaining the same weight as the previous bar, is Renthal's new Fatbar Carbon going to set the benchmark for other handlebars?
Paul Aston thinks these might be the best grips on the market. Soft, sticky, durable, cheap, customizable with great damping, what more could you ask for?
Renthal debuted their prototype direct mount stem at this weekend's Leogang World Cup race, bolting it to the front of Sam Hill's Specialized Demo. Get a closer look at the trick, horizontally split stem inside.
The 2011 season will see Monster Energy Specialized Racing team riders Sam Hill, Brendan Fairclough, and Troy Brosnan rocking Renthal parts on their race bikes.
Renthal have made quite a mark on the cycle scene in the last 18 months, and that is certainly set to continue. The launch of the new, cycle product specific website is a landmark in the evolution of Renthal as a World class producer of premier cycle products.
I know nothing about motorbikes. I'll prove it: I used to have a Honda Vison back in 1988 that flat out went 25mph. It even took 2 star petrol which back then was under 50p a liter. A full tank cost £2 and lasted me all week to Birmingham Wheels and back to skate Dickers Bowl.
What I do know about is Renthall, not a lot except that they are famous for their moto-x bars and sprockets..
