Cycra Handlebar Handguard

Cycra Handlebar Handguards: Race-Proven Protection You Can Trust

When it comes to protecting your hands and controls on the trail, track, or desert, few names carry as much weight as Cycra. Cycra has spent over two decades engineering handlebar handguards that are trusted by factory race teams and weekend warriors alike, and their lineup in the Handlebar Handguard category represents some of the most thoughtfully designed protection available for off-road motorcycles and ATVs.

The Iconic Probend Line

Cycra is best known for its innovative products such as the Probend handguards — a design that has become the benchmark for serious off-road riders. The Probend bars feature a unique curve bend described as an easy exit design, where an unobstructed path allows your hands to easily leave the controls if the situation should ever arise. This isn't just a stylistic flourish — it's a rider-safety engineering decision that sets Cycra apart from the competition.

Cycra components are raced by factory teams and racers such as Factory Yamaha, Factory KTM, and Factory Connection Honda, a testament to the real-world performance these handguards deliver under the most demanding conditions.

Ultra Probend CRM: The Flagship System

The top of Cycra's handguard lineup is the Ultra Probend CRM (Center Reach Mount) system. Its CRM clamp provides maximum bite to secure the handguards and allows for superior clearance on a wider range of bars, while the patented CNC billet machined bar is made from 6061 aircraft-quality aluminum, creating a varied wall thickness and slimmer profile. The shield design takes cues from the iconic Cycra Enduro Hand Shield, featuring a better ergonomic profile, a removable dual-zone ventilation system, and an integrated abrasion guard with a slimmer overall profile.

The patented CRM mounting system (US Patent 8,820,191) features a rise bent into the bar to clear cables and hoses, mounting directly to the handlebar hard up against the bar clamps where even tapered bars are straight. The included Powergrip Bar Ends with slotted barrel allow for a more secure bite than ever before.

Built for Every Riding Discipline

Cycra has a handguard for each application and all riders in between — from motocross to desert racing to recreational trail riding. Their lineup includes both open and closed (wrap-around) configurations, as well as composite options. The Composite Probend Bar Pack features full wrap-around handguards with the trademark Probend shape, a large area to accommodate hands and levers, and an integrated composite bumper to protect the Probend bars.

For riders looking for an alternative mounting approach, the Rebound line comes with a patented folding shield design for unexpected departures, and its independent-mount system is unique in its design, highly functional, and dependable.
