The fronts look like AKA Handlebars, after a closer look there are just some minor differences, but your right they are Barcodes, they are very similar

It was not a spec race. Pretty sure he was running some various AKA tires on Friday (test/tune day). AKA has a few different versions of clay compounds that they are working on right now so maybe he wasn't comfortable with them on that surface, which is very sensitive to tires and saucing.

A softer indoor compound will be awesome!! It'll dominate the Midwest.

I think so too...looks like AKA wheels, must be an old pic. Thought Cav switched to AKA this year. The side wall looks like it says "JConcepts" on an AKA wheel, Talking to some local guys the AKA's are wider wheels spreading the tire out for more traction. If Cav was running all AKA, I would say AKA wheels and a set of Handlebars.

You guys are WAY over thinking this whole tire situation lol. It's obvious what tires those are. It's no big thing.

The thing is this, no matter what your sponsor is... If their tires aren't on pace for whatever reason, be it tread type or most likely compound.... You run what is fast! Trust me, they would rather him run up front! He's still using their other products.
