Description
Youth Gone Wild's range of titanium bars possesses a stiffness-to-weight ratio akin to that of steel bars, yet features only half the molecular density. This gives the titanium bars nearly the same lightness as aluminium, without sacrificing the strength of steel. A significant advantage of titanium is its ability to elongate and withstand tensile stress. Consequently, titanium bars feel remarkably pliable compared to steel or aluminium bars, while also enhancing their durability. Titanium bars will restore their original shape rather than bend permanently.
Considering both the price and mechanical characteristics of titanium bars, we primarily suggest them for riders of a certain skill level: intermediate to pro at the very least. This is because, if not utilised properly, they can break as easily as bars made from other materials.
The Digger bar, designed in a BMX fashion, offers increased resistance to hard impacts and is therefore more robust than other bar designs. It is oversized, with an outer diameter of 35mm, and weighs only 777 grams. An excellent option for those desiring park-like lightness for street configurations.
