Custom Bars...
 
Here's something that I've wanted to do for quite a long time...
 
Love Handles
 
 
I've been searching for just the right bar to decrease the pain in my wrist and elbows after an intense ride.  The current crop of bars like the Mary and Jones just did not seem to do it for me...too much sweep, not enought rise, etc..
 
So, working with my mentor, Bill Grove (a wealth of metal fatigue engineering knowledge), we fabbed up some for myself and the test team to try out.  Now we've got them dialed and they are available for you, too.
 
 
 
Built of 4130 aircraft steel, with a gentle 4 degree rise and a 21.5 degree back sweep, these bars meet the natural anatomic position of your hands to allow for all day comfort and control.  The design allows you to use your current stem and the grip section is long enough to mate with any combination of shifters and brake levers...just slide them on, mark the excess and cut off the material you don't need.  
 
Here are some specs for you:
 
Width - 26.0" from the tip of the grip to the opposite point
Rise - 4 degrees or 1.0"
Sweep - 21.5 degree
Weight - 275 grams uncut
 
 
Available in black or silver for 85 bucks, custom painted for 115. 
 
Shipping with USPS insured is 10 bucks.
 
One Piece Bar/Stem Combos
 
I also do full custom bar/stem combos.
 
Name your...
 
Width, Sweep, rise, extension, and steerer tube size and I'll fab you up a control kit designed just for you.
 
Cost is 150.00 in a single color.
