Max Bar V4 – Cleatless

Description

Minimalistic, just an 85cm long depower cord with movable stopper and optional backline trim system.

All options explained:

Bar width – standard sizes we keep in stock are 46cm, 50cm, 54cm, 58cm, 62cm.

Bar diameter – 20mm is made from a tube with a 1mm wall thickness making it the lightest bar available. 22mm is made from a tube with a 2mm wall thickness, giving a heavier bar with unparalleled stiffness .

Bar surface  – Rubber shrink-wrap grip glued onto middle 28cm of the bar, adding a durable grip layer with only 10gr extra weight while maintaining the direct and smooth feel of the carbon bar and only increasing the thickness by 1mm. Or choose a bare matte-sanded carbon bar

Backline trim system – Besides our proven sliding backline trim system the version with knots is now also adjustable on the water for those that still want to adjust the trim setting after launching the kite but want it to be as minimalistic as possible.

Depower cord material – With the new swiveling center hole the 5mm PU is the preferred option, it has a smooth surface and smaller diameter. Dyneema is thicker and has less friction but a textured surface. If you push hard with the bar against the depower cord we recommend the Dyneema covered cord. The stopper is easier to adjust on the Dyneema covered cord.

Superslide line sections – New for 2026: the first 2m of the lines protected by a 2,5mm PTFE tube, eliminating wear completely at the location where the lines cross and greatly reducing friction. Ideal for big air riders or those that constantly ride with crossed lines. It does make the Superslide line section heavier to the point the lines will sink. Our proven Hybrid SK76 wear section is still available for those that need the line to float or never ride with crossed lines.

Total line length – total length is measured from the bottom of the bar to the end of the lines.

Our standard lines are SK99+ 425 (1.5mm) front and SK99 300 (1.1mm) back lines

Race pigtails are 12cm short pigtails made from the same material as the flying lines. Spliced pigtails are 20cm long and made from thicker 3mm Dyneema line.

Micro leash is our lightest and smallest option, strong enough to for a single line or 5fth flagout system.

Add a Quick Release directly during the bar configuration. As our release is harness based you only need 1 per rider. Saving overall travel weight.

Order a Custom length bar our standard lengths don’t suit you or choose a custom color combination bar-ends.
