I’m wanting to replace the stock handlebars and hand guards on my 2018 XT. I’d like to keep a similar bend. What have y’all used that’s beefier than stick?

Just curious, why do you want beefier than stock handlebars?

I’m hard on equipment. My stock bars are bent, so I’d like to replace them with better quality.

Look at the Protaper website. Their SE (7/8) selection is broad. They also have cross bars for added strength. You can choose from multiple bends.

A lot of folks usta use the ATV high bend style bars instead of adding riser blocks. But since Rox introduced their adj pivoting risers....that has changed. The ATV bars are slightly wider & pullback angled differently.

Exactly. I went with the CR Mid and am adding the Rox 2” adjustable risers.
