Renthal Crossbar Pad Black SX — Injection-Molded Foam, Durable PVC Cover

Renthal P213 Black SX Crossbar Pad is a lightweight, injection-molded foam pad that cushions the handlebar cross brace to reduce impact and stay securely in place during rides.

This compact crossbar pad from Renthal is built to extend the life of your handlebars while adding a layer of protection for riders. It combines high-density, injection-molded foam with a durable PVC cover and Velcro fastening so the pad resists wear, stays put on the cross brace, and survives repeated power washing without fading. The design prioritizes minimal weight and maximum longevity, making it suitable for aggressive trail riding, motocross, and casual off-road use.

How does the Renthal SX pad protect me on the trail?

The pad uses a high-density, injection-molded foam core that absorbs shocks and distributes impact across the pad rather than concentrating force on a single point. This reduces the chance of injury from glancing hits against the crossbar while also preserving the structural integrity of the bar itself.

• Injection-molded foam for consistent impact absorption
• Thicker profile where riders commonly strike the bar
• Secure fit minimizes pad displacement during falls

Why is the fit on the cross brace improved compared to basic pads?

Renthal designed the P213 to conform closely to the cross brace so it won’t shift or slip while you ride. The internal shape matches common crossbar profiles and the strong Velcro fastening locks the pad to the bar, reducing movement that can cause abrasion or intermittent protection.

• Pre-shaped internal contour for a snug attachment
• Industrial-grade Velcro keeps the pad fastened tightly
• Reduced twisting and sliding under load

How does the pad stand up to weather, washing, and daily wear?

Exterior durability is handled by a heavy-duty PVC cover that resists scuffs, UV fading, and moisture. Graphics are permanently applied so they won’t flake or wash away when you power-wash the bike after a muddy ride.

• PVC outer shell repels dirt and water
• Power-wash proof graphics maintain appearance
• Long-lived materials reduce the need for frequent replacement

What makes this pad a good choice for lightweight setups?

The P213 focuses on keeping mass low without sacrificing protection: the injection-molded foam is dense yet light, and the overall construction places minimal added weight on the handlebars. That balance is ideal for riders who want safety features but don’t want to affect handling or add bulk.

• Low overall weight preserves steering feel
• Streamlined shape avoids interfering with controls
• Easy to install and remove when transporting or storing the bike

The Renthal P213 Black SX Crossbar Pad is suited for riders who want a durable, low-weight protective solution that resists the elements and stays secured to the cross brace. It’s a good match for motocross and off-road cyclists seeking dependable impact cushioning without compromising bar ergonomics, as well as anyone who regularly power-washes their bike and needs graphics and materials that won't degrade. Choose this pad if you prioritize long-term durability, secure fitment, and a clean, low-profile look on your handlebars.
