Components

The Williams tire combines the best of both worlds, with a smooth continuous centerline tread that rolls super-fast and super grippy micro-knurling across the side treads. The 2.5” width adds stability and softens hard landings, while still fitting in most modern frames. Nathan Williams tested and approved.

The FPS tire features a fast, grippy, low profile tread design with a knurled surface for added traction. The tread surface extends down the side walls, providing full tread contact even on the lowest carves. A low profile and minimal tread pattern keeps rolling resistance low as well. The 2.5” width adds stability and softens hard landings, and still fits modern frames.

Four-piece handlebar designed by Johnny Raekes made from proven heat-treated chromoly tubing with a butted crossbar to reduce weight. 12* Backsweep, 1* Upsweep.

The Foundry bars are our classic, no gimmicks, super tough two-piece bars. These bars feature straight gauge 4130 chromoly steel tubing, and are heat treated for superior strength after welding. Coming in various rises tofit your preference, the Foundry bars all feature a comfortable 12° backsweep and 1° upsweep. The large radius bends increase durability and give these bars their timeless look.

The Helm bars strike the right balance between strength and weight by using internal butting throughout the main tubing and crossbar. This increases thickness and strength where it's needed in the bends, weld points,and the ends of the bars while keeping the tubing thinner in the straight sections. Constructed from 4130 chromoly steel tubing, these bars are also heat treated for superior strength after welding. The Helm bars come in various rises to fit your preference, and have a 12° backsweep,1° upsweep, and 29", 29.5", 29.5”, and 30" widths.

The Eagle bars are our first ever set of 4-piece bars! Available in multiple heights to fit your preference, all Eagle bars maintain the same width and comfortable sweeps. Made from straight gauge 4130 chromoly steel tubing, combine with our TruTherm post weld heat treatment process, these bars can take a beating. The dimensions and bends used on the Eagle bars give the classic 4-piece design a modern and updated look.

Designed with Nathan’s preferred geometry, and now available in a 4pc design. Nathan himself alternates between riding 2pc and 4pc bars, and thus the Williams bars are available in both, no matter which your preference is. With a classic 4pc shape and design, these bars feature a custom end cap design for a cleaner look. The straight gauge chromoly tubing construction and TruTherm post weld construction ensure these bars are super strong and can withstand Nathan’s insane level of riding.

As the name suggests, the Williams bars are Nathan Williams’ signature handlebars and feature all his preferred geometry. The 9.25” rise is a traditional height, without being either too tall or too short. The unique 1.5-degree upsweep is just slightly up from most traditional bars, and the 11-degree backsweep is slightly less, creating Nathan’s preferred feel. The 13-butted chromoly tubing construction, and TruTherm post weld heat treatment process ensure these bars have no problems standing up to Nathan’s insane level of riding.

The Rex bars are perfect if you are looking for a big pair of bars, but not enormous. Like all Kink handlebars, the Rex bars use only the best 4130 chromoly steel material and our TruTherm post weld heat treatment process to ensure maximum strength. The 13-butted tubing design means the bars are thicker in the bends, which adds strength where bars need it most.

With a 10” rise and 30” width the Hulk bars are big plain and simple. Like all Kink handlebars the Hulk bars use only the best 4130 chromoly steel material and our TruTherm post weld heat treatment process to ensure maximum strength. The 13-butted tubing design means the bars are thicker in the bends which adds strength where bars need it most.

The Kink Wake tire features an all-new low profile, grippy, modern tread design. The entire tread surface is knurled for extra grip while still rolling fast and smooth. An aggressive but low tread profile makes this tire great for a range of surfaces, from street to park to dirt. The side treads taper down flush to the sidewall, giving you traction on carves and helping with grind clearance. The 2.45” width is plenty wide while still leaving space for good frame clearance.

The Kink Sever tires feature a simple, yet stylish and effective low profile tread pattern that rolls fast while providing a ton of grip. The entire outer tread surface is micro-knurled which adds additional traction, fresh out of the box. The 2.4" tire width and resilient rubber compound help soften hard landings for both the rider and the rims. Increased thickness in the side wall areas helps to prevent flats, and improves stability even when running lower tire pressures.

Merritt Option Tire
The Option tire takes a new look at what makes a good street tire, and goes way beyond just making a tread pattern that looks good. Featuring our Slidewall Technology which is our own ultra-hard low friction compound that helps reduce drag on grinds and increase the life of the tire sidewalls plus a ton of other features. The center section of the tire is smooth, so it is nice and fast, but the tread is actually thick for this section. The thicker tread has the benefit of increased shock absorption and then abruptly tapers down to a thinner thickness. By having the tapered tread connect to the thick center section, it offers support so there is no squirm and the tire is stable and at the same time reduces the tire weight because there is no benefit to the thicker tread on those sections of the tire. 20" x 2.35"

Merritt Foster FT1 Tire
Trails nowadays are nothing like they used to be, very little pedaling and/or braking and the dirt is usually rock hard, it doesn't make sense to mimic MX tires (that have to accelerate, brake and turn in soft dirt) with big knobs anymore and BF rides a mix of everything, so his tire needs to work well on everything. That lead to giving the FT1 a relatively smooth center section, to make the tire fast. Turning is when an increase in grip (instead of outright speed) is needed, lean the bike over in a turn and the micro-knobs come into play. The micro-knobs provide a perfect balance of surface area, stability and space in between for when the dirt might be a little soft still. The micro-knobs actually stick up above the main surface a super small amount, this allows them to sink into that slightly soft dirt and give an increase in surface area contact, but the amount they are raised doesn't negatively affect stability or grip on hard surfaces. At the edges of the tread pattern are smooth tread blocks that help protect the sidewall on ramps and street.
