If it’s possible to eat your cake and eat it to, Affinity has enabled that feat with its Affinity Basic T Bars. The Affinity XL T bars are our favorite street bars – quality is second to none, the available color ways are stunning, and the price is reasonable for what you get. The Basic T Bars look identical to the XL T bars and carry the same dimensions – 24 inches wide by 28 inches tall. So how did Affinity make them cost 25% less than the XL T’s? They used a material called DOM steel, which is just as durable as chromoly steel but significantly less expensive.
Durability Paired with Affordability
Steel bars are extremely durable while aluminum bars are extremely light weight. DOM steel gets you all of the durability benefits of chromoly steel but at a 25% discount. If you check out what most pro riders are running, you’ll see Affinity bars on a lot of their setups due to the durability. Both DOM and chromoly steel are used in NHRA roll cages. If DOM is durable enough to protect a driver moving at 200mph in a crash, it will be a great choice for the street rider that wants a bar that will handle whatever abuse you can throw at it.
The Choice of Intermediate and Pro Street Riders!
Affinity T bars are tall so they’re not intended for the youngest of riders. Steel T bars are typically for use with a street rider so, if you’re a street rider between the ages of 10 and 16, the Basic T bars will be the perfect bar for the intermediate to pro rider on a budget.
The Compression of Choice for Pro Street Riders!
All Affinity bars are SCS bars, which is simply the most effective compression on the market. SCS compression compresses forks and bars independently, making the compression unbelievably effective while keeping your scooter dialed all of the time. Pro riders want to focus on their riding, not tightening up their compression system all of the time, which makes the Affinity Basic T bars the bar of choice for most pro riders.
6 Month Limited Warranty.
Affinity has one of the best warranties in the business – 180 days…but there’s a small catch. It’s really a 90 day warranty to cover full replacement of the bars. If you encounter an issue on days 91 – 180, Affinity will give you a sizeable discount to replace them. Affinity warranties must be submitted directly to the manufacturer.
NEW Product Features
- Simple Colors – Black, Raw, Heat Finish
- Durable – Made from DOM steel, Basic T Bars are durable at a fraction of the cost of other steel bars.
- Affordable – 25% less than XL T bars.
Summary
Simply put, Affinity makes some of the best, if not the best, steel street bars on the planet! When you can get them at just $65 vs $80-$90 at other manufacturers, we think the Affinity bar is the only one to buy!

Scooter bars are probably one of the most complicated parts you can buy so we’re going to go fairly in-depth here. The main driver of what bar you should purchase is what compression system you are running.
COMPATIBLE PARTS: Clamp or Compression System, Grips, Bar Adapters
GRIPS – All grips work with all bars. However, there’s a catch. The inner diameter of steel bars have a different inner diameter than aluminum bars so make sure that the grips you purchase in conjunction with your bars come with the appropriately sized bar ends. Many grips today come with both size adapters so they can be run with either size but many do not so please check before purchasing.
SCS BARS – SCS bars are bars that do NOT have a slit. SCS bars will be compatible with an SCS compression system and SCS forks. The outer diameter of your bars, whether standard or oversized, must be compatible with your SCS compression system. Most SCS compression systems come with a shim, which makes them compatible with either standard or oversized diameter bars. Remove the shim from the SCS to use it with oversized outer diameter bars; keep it in to use with standard outer diameter bars. If you’re looking for the most reliable compression system that will keep you dialed at all times, you should run SCS.
HIC BARS – HIC bars are steel oversized bars with a slit. They require an HIC compression system, an oversized double clamp, and HIC forks. Please note that, while aluminum bars have an oversized diameter, they have a standard inner diameter and will not work with HIC compression. The HIC shim will screw onto the top of your HIC forks. The additional width of the HIC shim on the forks is what necessitates the oversized inner diameter of the bars. A double clamp with a shim (or an oversized double clamp without a shim) will compress your oversized bars with a slit around your HIC shim/forks. You should run HIC compression if you want a lighter setup than SCS.
IHC BARS – IHC compression is also known as integrated headset compression. IHC compression works with steel bars with a slit or aluminum bars with a slit. The important note is that your bars must have a slit to work with IHC compression. IHC bars require a double clamp with a shim and that’s pretty much it since the compression is integrated into the forks. You must use IHC forks with this setup.
IHC to HIC Conversion Kits
Most manufacturers are selling COMPLETE SCOOTERS with IHC compression. When you want to run HIC bars but you have IHC forks, there’s a cheap alternative to picking up new forks, bars, and a compression system. Pick up an IHC to HIC conversion kit, which just replaces your IHC shim with a wider one so you can run HIC.
SCS Conversion Kits
If you are running IHC or HIC compression and get tired of tightening your clamp bolts frequently, you may want to convert to SCS compression. With IHC and HIC compression, the slit in your bars allows the double clamp to compress them around the bars. The downside to the slit in the bars is that the bolts in your double clamp frequently come loose and allow play, which requires frequent tightening. SCS rarely, if ever requires, tightening because it compresses the forks and bars independently. If you have bars with an oversized or standard INNER diameter and want to convert to SCS, you can purchase the appropriately sized SCS bar adapter. The adapter inserts into the bottom of the bars to negate the flex of the slit, converting your HIC or IHC bars to SCS. If you convert your bars to SCS, you will also need to purchase SCS forks and an SCS compression system. Final note – once you insert that bar adapter into your bars, you are most likely NEVER getting it back out so be sure that you want to convert to SCS.
