We often find, in freestyle scooters and more specifically in handlebars, the term "Butted"...

But what exactly is it?

Essentially, "double butted" implies that the tube was designed with thicker walls at high stress locations where cracks typically occur, and thinner walls at low stress locations.

So what ?

This innovative design significantly reduces weight while maintaining the strength and durability of your bar, making it perfectly suited to the impacts of the freestyle scooter.

Double butted chromoly steel is preferred for its blend of strength and relatively light weight, making it a sought-after choice for bars in the freestyle scooter scene.

Resume :

If you find a bar marked "butted" it has a good chance of being lighter than steel bars without losing strength, although nothing is indestructible! It is often the good compromise between lightness and solidity.
