hi guys i have renthal handlebars on my banshee, i think the bend is 636? that is the number written on them anyway

i really like this bend as i am used to it now but i like the look of the pro taper or renthal fat bars.

does anyone use any of the tapered bars with a similar bend to the renthal 636? (i think this bend is supposed to the same as standard banshee too)

thanks, mark

yeah i noticed that tag make a "banshee" bend, i wonder if it is the same as my renthals?

also with the clamp adaptor for the tag taper bars do they sit that much higher or is the bar made lower to compensate?

The Tag bars I have made it sit a bit higher but that was good, now with the Vapor dash it sits a lil bit higher again, I think it feels better but everyone is different, I got Tag2 bars and 450 and 700 are the same..

Flexx bars are the only way to go.
They do a 14 degree bend that will be closer to the standard Banshee bars.
I ended up with 12's because the 14's weren't available at the time. I got used to the new angle really quickly and now prefer them. So I would not be too concerned about an exact match.

They are a big investment but they do a lot more than just help steer your quad. You won't be disapointed.
