Spank Spike 800 VibroCore handlebar
Alloy handlebar strength and value, with carbon-killer comfort and performance. Spank Industries’ award winning Spike 800 Vibrocore Bar is the first revolutionary alloy handlebar design in decades. This DH race tuned bar was developed with World Cup pros Mick and Tracey Hannah, to combat the debilitating effects of hand-arm numbness and arm-pump. Spanks proprietary Vibrocore™ technology injects a complex foam core into the bar's center, effectively damping the sustained high frequency vibrations which lead to discomfort. In addition to comfort exceeding other alloy or carbon bars on the market, the Spike 800 Vibrocore delivers strength and stiffness unmatched by conventional alloy bars, as well as vastly enhanced fatigue life.

Technologies
Vibrocore™
Is a proprietary, biodegradeable, complex foam core of precisely controlled density. Injected into Spank Industries handlebars, it reduces the harmful vibrations which can lead to hand-arm numbness and fatigue (HAVS), as well as arm-pump (CECS), while also increasing overall bar stiffness and fatigue life.
Extreme Gradual Taper technology.
Dual Extreme Gradual Taper technology is a proprietary tube drawing process, afforded by Spank‘s secret state of the art tooling. Dual XGT technology tapers bars from the thickest area at the bar clamping zone, slowly and gradually through the bend zones, to the thinnest areas at the control zones...and...back to thicker reinforced barend zones, or “Impact Ends”. Tapers that occur over too short a distance, or with defined start/end points, create isolated stress zones where breaks can occur. Spank has utilized FEA (Finite Element Analysis), laboratory, and rigorous real world testing to optimize the spread of material to where it is needed to withstand the specific forces at work in each zone, while offering better protection against crashes than ever before!
