How to spot genuine Rider bars
1. Look for the rolled-in mark
Genuine bars show the Rider mark and bar size along their length.
2. Measure the diameter
Use callipers. A 16 mm bar should measure 16 mm, not less.
3. Check the bundle tag
Every bundle carries a tag with its batch number. Verify it above.
4. Buy from authorised distributors
Our distributor list is the safest place to buy.
