The Pro Series F8 Taper Bars from RFX are designed and tested to the highest levels, manufactured from 7075-T6 aluminium they feature Oversize Taper Extension (OTE) to ensure ultimate strength and crash resistance, whilst Engineered Flex Technology (EFT) and Progressive Damping Control (PDC) provide just the right amount of flex and reduction in vibration to help combat rider fatigue.As well as the Taper design the 'F8' Bar design also features an original style cross brace, this design gives a slightly firmer feel to the handle bars over the F7 design and is the preferred choice of some expert and professional racers!Oversize Taper Extension or 'OTE' is a lengthening of the central oversize (28.6mm) section. Increasing the oversize section to run past the final bend in the handlebar adds significant strength to the weakest part of any handlebar, couple this with a 5mm wall thickness that stays consistent even on the outside of the bends and the F8 Taper Bar is one of the lightest yet
