A simple but pricey solution for the barspinning trick ferrets out there

Barspins and tailwhips are popular tricks, but they interfere with hydraulic lines. The front hose can be routed through the head tube directly to the fork, but the rear is still normally a problem. Until now.

The Trixer hydraulic rotor sits in place of the bearing cover on the top race of your headset, under the stem, taking up 23mm. The Trixer is two rotating plates with bladders that push on each other. There is a hose entry on the top plate and an exit on the bottom plate that are compatible with Goodridge and other similar hose units, though no fittings are included.

Bleeding is a no-fuss affair and the brake feels just a little bit spongier. This differs depending on the brand, but once used to it you won’t even know. With this fitted you can spin the bars to your heart’s content.

Product "31603" does not exist or you do not have permission to access it.
