36% lighter than the Fatbar, with a huge mounting diameter.

Besides the downside of needing to also buy new mounts, this could be a pretty great bar. I guess Roczen just used it in St Louis.

Ya I’m out.
Probably quite cost efficient a way to save half a pound as well: costs about a grand per kilogram - 2.2 lbs- on most bikes using titanium, carbon fibre, CNC machining and so on.
Regardless, it's nice to see them doing development and offering something new.
I thank f**k that I made my swingarms to take up to 165mm hub widths, nearly 2 decades ago. Hey, you want 130 (I think that's Hopes' 'innovation'), 135 / 142/ 148 'Boost', 150, 157DH, 'Super Boost Plus 157'......., well, here's your spacers and matching mount bolts...........

It's like exhaust systems they won't list the weights, just that they are lighter or my google skills suck.
Doesn’t matter to me at that price they can keep it. But I’m slow.
Other than that I dig it.
Btw the bar will bend easier in a tip over
