BOX – ONE BARS – REVIEW

Bars from the company who created a whole new standard in BMX

It’s very rare to have a company bold enough to create a new standard in BMX. But over the last few years, Box have been that brand. They brought over a tried and tested bar clamping width from mountain biking and made it work in BMX.

“The Box 31.8mm bars and stems are a common sight around the globe now and we just had to include them in the BMX Race 100 list.”

The Box 31.8mm bars and stems are a common sight around the globe now and we just had to include them in the BMX Race 100 list. Box have earned the spot for innovation and design, so is it fair to say Box are the ‘Apple’ of BMX racing? Opening up a Box part is parallel to unboxing your new iPhone or MacBook.

Made from the highest quality 4130 chromoly, Box One handlebars (aka Maximus) feature a proprietary 13-butted taper from 22.2mm at the grip area to 31.8mm across the lower bends. The added stiffness significantly improves bike handling while putting more upper body power into your pedal stroke. That means getting out of the gate and down the first straight faster and accelerating quicker out of the turns.
