Description
ProTaper is one of the leading bands for motocross / offroad bikes. The Seven Eighths (SE) handlebars are ProTaper’s entry-level modelr, the right choice to upgrade your bike from a standard 22mm handlebar to a ProTaper version (also 22mm diameter).
The lightweight but robust handlebar is made of aluminium and has a crossbar, combining high strength, very good flexibility and excellent impact absorption.

Pro tip: Choosing the right handlebar is important to feel completely at ease and in control on your moped / bike and to get the optimal riding experience. The smaller the rider, the lower the handlebars should be. Conversely, the taller the rider, the higher the handlebar. Riding style and discipline can also play a role when selecting a model (higher handlebars for stand up riding, lower handlebars for riding sitting down).
All two-wheelers, whether scooter, moped or motorcycle, have handlebars. There are different types of handlebars:
Handlebar 22mm
Most 50cc scooters and motorcycles have a standard 22mm diameter handlebar. There are many aftermarket alternatives for standard handlebars, like aluminium handlebars in various designs such as motocross handlebars, MTB handlebars or enduro handlebars. Aftermarket handlebars are available in many colours so you can customize your bike.
MTB handlebar
MTB handlebars, short for mountain bike handlebar, allow riders to improve the seating position as well as the handling of their scooter. MTB handlebars can only be mounted by also installing a matching handlebar stem. Stem and handlebars give your scooter a much sportier look.
motoCross handlebar 28mm
28mm MX handlebars are the ideal choice for off-road riders. Thanks to their robust and durable construction, these handlebars are suitable for tough off-road use. You will need 28mm handlebar clamps for mounting these handlebars. The handlebars are available in many designs and colours, so you can alter the look of your bike.
In addition, there are old school handlebars for classic mopeds - M-bars, chrome handlebars, Z-bars or twisted handlebars to pimp your vintage two-wheeler.
