The denser a material, the higher its ability to transmit energy waves. Alloys have a very high density, and in turn, transmit vibrational energy very effectively. Vibrocore is a complex, low-density material which fills the core of the Spank SPIKE 800 Race Vibrocore handlebar, reducing the frequency, amplitude, and duration of energy waves.
Not only does the low density of the Vibrocore foam impede the transfer of energy, but as energy waves cross material boundaries from high density to low density, they are refracted and reflected (basically bounced in different directions), reducing their ability to build on one another or sustain vibrational frequencies.
Testing of the Spank SPIKE 800 Race Vibrocore bar with World Cup downhill (DH) racers like Mick and Tracey Hannah has shown that by reducing the "white noise" vibration from riding, Vibrocore handlebars enhance tactile sensitivity between rider, bike and terrain while reducing fatigue. When races are won or lost by milliseconds, this can make all the difference.
