Nexus Bar Mounts, M12 (fits Luxon Gen3 clamps)
Nexus is the ultimate, comfort oriented, high-performance bar mount. These mounts fully isolate the handlebar from the triple clamp with highly developed elastomer sets, absorbing roughness and vibration from the track or trail, without a loss of steering precision, and eliminating twisting in small crashes and tip-overs.
This mount is a must for off-road and enduro, but also works great for motocross, vet riders, and riders with hand and wrist injuries. The unique, patent pending design, is much lighter, more versatile, simpler, and less expensive than competing products. Three bushing sets (soft, medium, and firm) are included to tune the feel.
These bar mounts fit Luxon Gen3, Xtrig, and other aftermarket tripe clamps with the M12 interface. Please read below for exact fitment details.

Product Description, Fitment, Information, and Details
M12 Direct Bolt-On Interface:
The M12 interface on a Luxon Gen3 triple clamp (click to enlarge)
The M12 interface is a recessed slot on the top triple clamp, 26 mm wide, with three 12 mm threaded holes per side. The bar mounts sit in these slots and bolt directly to the triple clamp with an M12 bolt.
Bar Size
The Nexus bar mounts fit standard 1 1/8" handlebars only (the most common size). Sorry, we do not offer the Nexus bar mounts in the FB36 (36 mm) size or the older 7/8" bar size.
Bar Position
Nexus mounts have a height of 26 mm (bottom of bar to top of triple clamp) and a 3.75 mm offset (7.5 mm of bar position change when flipping the mounts around). These dimensions are similar to most stock bar mounts. An optional riser kit is available for those who prefer a taller position (allows for 26 mm, 31 mm, 36 mm, and 41 mm height options).
Bike Fitment:
These mounts fit Luxon Gen3, Gen3 Pro, and many Xtrig triple clamps. They do NOT fit stock clamps or other aftermarket clamps without the M12 interface. Our mounts fit most bikes without issue, but in some cases, you may need to trim plastic brackets or relocate hour meters or accessories to allow clearance in the extreme mounting positions. Always check for full clearance after installation and before riding.
Most standard bar pads will fit with some trimming around the bar mount area. A Dremel tool with a sanding drum makes this easy, but a razor blade can be used as well.
Our M12 mounts fit Luxon Gen3, Gen3 Pro, and most Xtrig triple clamps. If in doubt, please double check that your triple clamps have an M12 interface as explained above.

Our patent pending Nexus bar mounts are lighter, simpler, more versatile, and less expensive than competing products and setups. These mounts are 25% lighter and nearly 20% less expensive than the comparable XC Gear Mako360 bar mount, but have increased steering precision and mounting versatility.
When compared to a Flexx handlebar setup, the Nexus bar mounts save nearly two pounds (832 g) at 11% lower cost (solid bar mounts with Flexx bars vs. Nexus bar mounts with Pro Taper Evo bars).
The Nexus bar mount system includes rubber bushings, bar clamps, bases, caps, high-strength steel mount and pinch bolts (titanium pinch bolts are an optional upgrade), and anti-seize.
Three different hardness levels of bushings are included at no additional cost. Bushing hardness is a compromise between comfort (soft) and steering precision (firm). Like all rubber bushings, these are wear items and will eventually break down and need replacing. Softer bushings will need to be replaced more often than harder bushings and are more susceptible to crash damage. Replacement bushings are available for a reasonable cost.
| Soft (Green) | Medium (Yellow) | Firm (Red) |
|---|---|---|
| Soft bushings are for less aggressive or lighter weight riders. | Medium Bushings are a good starting point and will be preferred by most novice or vet riders. | Firm bushings are a good choice for faster and more agressive riders |
| It is also possible to mix a harder bushing on top with a softer bushing on the bottom (do not mix softer on top than bottom). | ||
