BSD Safari Bar

The Safari bar is essentially an updated evolution of the Giraffic bar. It retains the core geometry that made the original popular but incorporates modern refinements to improve overall durability and handling for current riding styles.

The 3-degree upsweep is designed to provide a more ergonomic hand position compared to flatter bars. It helps reduce wrist strain during long sessions and can make the bike feel slightly more comfortable when you are cruising or setting up for tricks.

The 7/8” version is the standard size for most BMX stems. The OS 1” Gorilla Grip version requires a compatible oversized stem, but it offers a significantly stronger clamping area that prevents the bars from slipping, which is ideal if you ride aggressively.

Yes, these bars are built from heat-treated, multiple-butted 4130 chromoly steel specifically to handle the high-impact nature of both street and park riding. They are designed to be stiff and responsive, giving you the control needed for technical maneuvers and larger transitions.

Multiple-butted tubing means the wall thickness varies throughout the bar—thicker at high-stress points like the bends and thinner in lower-stress areas. This allows the bars to be incredibly strong where it counts without adding unnecessary weight.
