Handlebars

Your pick of a handlebar has more to do with your position on the bike than just about any other part. (Obviously, the stem is related.) All of the models we offer are either our designs-from-scratch, or are our modifications of existing designs, to make them just right.

For decades, we've sold only NITTO (from Tokyo) handlebars. NITTO is the best handlebar maker in the world, and makes the bars with an artistic aesthetic more common to jewelers than to bike part makers. They also test the bars to rigorous strength standards, and refuse to listen to us when we've suggested they relax them to reduce weight. We've given up asking, and their standards have raised our own.

Want to change out your dropbars for something more upright? Check out this article.
