Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
Will this handlebar help keep my hands feeling fresh?
The engineering focus of the Turbine bar is to combat arm pump and hand fatigue. Many riders report that their hands feel significantly fresher even after long, demanding descents.
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.
Is the handlebar engineered to provide a compliant ride?
Absolutely. The Turbine series is specifically designed to offer a consistently compliant feel, which helps dampen trail chatter and allows you to ride comfortably from dawn until dusk.
