The Race Face Ride Riser Handlebar is an ideal choice for XC and trail riders seeking a reliable, high-performance cockpit upgrade without a premium price tag. Built with durable, cold-drawn seamless materials and reinforced through shot-peening, this bar offers a balance of strength and weight savings that enhances trail responsiveness. While it provides excellent geometry for most riders, those who prefer ultra-wide bars for aggressive downhill riding may find the fixed 710mm width slightly narrower than modern gravity-focused options.

No, this handlebar is strictly designed for a 31.8mm clamp diameter.
Yes, if you prefer a narrower profile, the bar can be trimmed using a proper pipe cutter or hacksaw with a cutting guide.
While the construction is durable, this bar is primarily rated for XC and Trail use; consult your bike manufacturer's weight rating before installing on heavy eMTBs.
A 25mm rise slightly alters your cockpit geometry; a higher rise generally encourages a more upright, relaxed position.
The 5-degree rearward and 6-degree upward sweep is designed to align with the natural angle of the wrists to minimize strain during long-distance riding.
Verify that the stem bolts are torqued to the correct specifications and ensure the clamping area is clean and free of grease.
Remove the bar, clean the clamping surface, re-align, and retorque the bolts in an 'X' pattern to ensure even pressure.
To install, ensure your stem uses a 31.8mm clamp diameter, which is the industry standard for this bar. Center the bar precisely within the stem faceplate using the provided alignment markings. When tightening the stem bolts, use a torque wrench to follow the manufacturer's recommended torque settings for both the stem and the handlebar to avoid crushing the material. Do not overtighten. For care, wipe down the bar with a damp cloth after muddy rides to remove abrasive grit. Periodically inspect the surface for deep scratches or signs of impact damage. If the bar suffers a major crash, it should be replaced immediately, as internal fatigue is not always visible to the naked eye.
