ODI Releases Ricky Carmichael Signature Handlebar 2

October 11th, 2019 – As many might already know, Ricky Carmichael has been riding on ODI Handlebars and Lock-On Grips since the development of the RCH Suzuki Supercross team. Since Ricky is still at the forefront of our industry, SX announcer, race promoter, heading up RC University and helping to groom up and coming riders at the GOAT Farm. We wanted to solidify a direct relationship with Ricky as a brand ambassador specifically to endorse ODI’s growing range of handlebars.

First things first, Ricky needed to get the exact bend that he prefers, so we made some slight tweaks to the current bend he has been running to make it his own. Starting with our popular “McGrath” Bend, we bumped up the overall height, ever so slightly and flattened out the controls. We then pushed the sweep forward to provide a straighter overall bar bend. We finished up the bars adding special designed RC4 Logos in a custom bronze colorway which matches the Kashima bits found on many of the factory bikes you might see in the pro pits. Autographed RC4/ODI Bar Pad comes with each set. RC4 Bar Pads are also available separately.
