What makes a good BMX handlebar?
A good BMX handlebar is made from heat-treated 4130 CrMo - lighter and far less prone to breaking than plain steel. The differences are in the butting: the more often the tube is butted (multi-butted rather than single), the more precisely the material sits where the forces act, which saves weight without costing strength. Premium bars for park and flatland are made from high-grade titanium, offering the best weight-to-strength ratio of all. More on this in the category FAQ

kunstform Picks from the BMX Bars category
Our history with BMX parts did not start when we opened kunstform in 2003: some of the team have been riding longer than the shop has existed, and most of us are still on a bike today. So we know pretty well which parts we can trust. A kunstform Pick therefore only goes to what we would bolt onto our own bikes: parts where the quality and the value are right, and that you will enjoy for a long time.
