Trail riding and racing involves the potential for fairly frequent, big crashes. Every time you crash on a carbon bar you may damage it? but you may not know. An aluminum bar will bend when it has been taken beyond safe limits. A bent bar should be retired.
Elite 35mm Aluminum Bar
Regular price
$134.95
Description
The flat bar has a center rise of 8mm, the mid is a 20mm rise and our tallest is a 35mm rise.
All 35mm aluminum bars feature a 9° backsweep, and 5° upsweep. They're built using 7050 alloy for strength and longevity.
A long straight section in the middle reduces stress concentrations and come in 800mm width. The clamping area is 50mm, allowing a different bend profile for a more compliant ride.
Bars are butted and tapered in many steps for optimal fatigue life. The ends of the bar are thickened from 1.4 to 1.6mm to resist damage from impacts and contact with the ground.
