Why buy Blunt Envy Reaper Scooter Bars?
How do the different versions (V2, V3, V4) differ?
Each generation adjusts height, width and style. The V2 bars typically measure around 22 inches wide and 25.6 inches tall. V3 bars are slightly larger (23 × 26 inches) and feature a thicker downtube for improved strength. V4 bars continue refining the profile while adding new finishes like neochrome and camo. Always check measurements to ensure they suit your height and bar preference.
Are Reaper bars durable?
For aluminium bars, Reapers are highly durable thanks to heat-treated construction and thicker crossbars. However, aluminium is inherently less robust than steel. Heavy street riders or riders over 80 kg might flex the bars over time and should consider steel alternatives like Blunt’s Soul bars.
What compression systems do they work with?
Reaper bars are designed with a slit and work best with IHC or HIC compression when paired with oversized clamps. To use Reaper bars with SCS, you must remove the slit and insert a bar plug; otherwise, the bar won’t clamp correctly. Check your current setup before choosing bars.
Can I cut down Reaper bars?
Yes. You can trim the height or width to your preferred dimensions using a hacksaw or pipe cutter. After cutting, file the edges smooth to avoid sharp burrs. Remember that removing the slit for SCS setups requires a proper tool and will void the ability to use IHC/HIC without additional modifications.
Are Reaper bars suitable for beginners?
They suit beginners who ride park and prioritise lightness for spins. The affordable price and easy handling make them an excellent choice for young or small riders. Heavier riders or those focusing on street grinds should consider more robust bars.
Do they come in different colours?
Yes. Reaper bars are available in finishes like black, silver, neochrome, and camo. Anodised finishes protect against scratches and provide vibrant colours. Choosing a colour is purely aesthetic but helps personalise your scooter.
