Frequently asked questions
How does the 10mm rise affect handling and comfort?
A 10mm rise provides a balanced geometry that offers a more comfortable riding position compared to flat bars, helping to optimize your posture and control on the trail.
Do I need to trim this handlebar to fit?
Not necessarily. The Turbine handlebar is available in a variety of widths (760mm, 780mm, and 800mm) and rises (10mm, 20mm, and 40mm) to help you find the perfect geometry for your riding style right out of the box. While the bars are trimmable if you have a specific preference, the wide selection of available sizes is designed to help you avoid the need for modifications, ensuring you maintain the bar’s intended ride characteristics and structural integrity.
Does this handlebar come in different width options?
Yes, the Turbine Handlebar is available in three factory-optimized widths to help you find the best fit for your riding style:
- 760mm
- 780mm
- 800mm
While these bars can be trimmed, Race Face offers these specific widths so you can select the size that best matches your setup without needing to modify the bar. Choosing the correct width from the factory ensures you maintain the intended ‘GL Tune’ performance, which provides the ideal balance of vertical compliance and durability for a more comfortable ride.
Does the alloy construction maintain a lightweight profile?
Yes, the Turbine handlebar is engineered with an advanced alloy build that balances durability and lightweight performance, making it an excellent choice for various mountain bike setups, from trail to downhill.
How does the 'GL Tune' impact my ride?
The ‘Goldilocks’ (GL) tune is an engineering approach that balances structural strength with trail compliance. By using advanced internal butting and specific wall thicknesses, the bar provides enough flex to absorb trail chatter—which helps fight arm pump—without feeling overly soft or noodlesome during aggressive riding.
Are many customization colors available?
Yes, the Turbine Handlebar is offered in seven distinct colors to allow for extensive cockpit customization. The available options include: Black, Orange, Red, Blue, Stealth, Kashmoney (metallic gold), and Purple. This wide range ensures you can find the perfect finish to complement your bike’s aesthetic.
