T-rex crash bars
Posted: Sun May 11, 2025 4:11 pm
Hi
I just received my new to me 2023 RT and I am looking at crash bars. I have Ilium on order, but found the T-rex bars. I was comparing mountain points, as I feel that more mountain points, prevent the bars to flex or move with a tip over or slow speed slide. Material wise, they both use 1 inch steel.
T-rex fromt: 3 connection points
T-rex back: 4 connection points
Ilium: back and front, 2 connection points
I know you can remove the ilium rears, but I doubt I would ever do that.
Can you easily do an oil change with the T-rex bars installed just like the Ilium?
Does anyone had the misfortune of dropping their bike with the T-Rex crash bars installed and can you share your experience?
