T BAR Y BAR

With these two photos we can clearly see the difference between the T and the Y. You should still know that the Y bars can be more or less curved depending on the brands and models.

Each type of bar has its benefits, firstly the T bar is a simpler bar in terms of design and visual and the most important is that it will be much more responsive than a Y bar (it still depends bending of the bar). As for the Y bar, it will be more original in terms of design but a little less responsive for tricks like barspin.

The last important point to highlight is the material of the bar. This can vary between steel, aluminum or titanium. The main difference between these materials is weight , steel is heavier than aluminum and aluminum is heavier than titanium. For example, a titanium T bar will be much lighter and more responsive than a steel Y bar.

 

Now that you know more about the different types of bar you will be able to make your choice. So don't hesitate any longer and go to the bar tab to order your favorite model.
