The durable black PODIUM78 handlebars from ODI, featuring a sleek design and crossbar.
In the dynamic realm of motocross, ATV riding, and pit biking, superior handlebars are essential for precision and endurance. The PODIUM78, ODI's flagship 7/8-inch handlebar series, continues to set benchmarks in 2025 for riders seeking enhanced performance over stock options. Designed for mini bikes, ATVs, and OEM clamps, these bars combine aerospace-grade materials with innovative engineering to deliver unmatched strength and comfort on demanding terrains.
Crafted from 7075 alloy, the PODIUM78 undergoes shot peening and hard anodizing to boost fatigue resistance and corrosion protection. This high-tensile material ensures the bars endure intense impacts without compromising weight. The 7/8-inch diameter fits seamlessly with stock clamps on models like the Honda CRF50, XR50, and 110cc pit bikes, simplifying upgrades. A solid crossbar provides stiffness, reducing flex during jumps, while clamped cross braces in premium variants add extra support for aggressive riding.
Customization is key with the PODIUM78's multiple bend options. The 110 Style offers a 785mm width, 145mm height, 48mm sweep, and 117mm rise, ideal for balanced control in mid-sized riders. For taller users or casual racers, the 50 Style provides a wider 795mm span, 178mm height, and 42mm sweep, promoting an ergonomic posture to minimize fatigue on long rides. Variants like the RC High and One-Ten cater to specific needs, with higher rises for improved leverage. Laser-etched graphics enhance aesthetics, and knurled left-side grips ensure secure hold, compatible with slip-on or lock-on systems.

User reviews in 2025 laud the PODIUM78 for its vibration-dampening properties, which surpass stock bars and reduce wrist strain on bumpy tracks. Enthusiasts report exceptional durability, with one stating the bars "withstand crashes without bending," making them reliable for competitive use. Compared to 1-1/8-inch oversized alternatives, the PODIUM78 feels lighter and more responsive, perfect for youth and mini setups, though wider-shouldered riders may prefer custom widths.
Easy installation includes a protective bar pad, and pairing with ODI grips optimizes the setup. Priced at $80-$90, they're accessible via retailers like Rocky Mountain ATV/MC, MotoSport, and TBolt USA.
As off-road sports evolve, the PODIUM78 remains a top choice for its blend of innovation, compatibility, and resilience. Whether tackling trails or tracks, these handlebars empower riders to push limits confidently.
