ProTaper PT02-0210 Contour SX Race Bend Handlebar Gold

ProTaper Contour Handlebars

Oversize diameter handlebars without crossbars were invented and patented by ProTaper. This unique design allows the bar to flex and absorb impacts better than standard 7/8" bars. The intentional bar flex leads to increased rider comfort and less fatigue, while the oversize diameter at the bar clamp area maintains bar integrity. The Contour handlebar utilizes a computer profiled 5mm wall design, making it 20% lighter and 40% stronger than most bars.

Features:

• Made from 5mm, proprietary, 2000 series T6 aluminum alloy for superior strength
• Oversize 1-1/8" at bar clamp, tapers to 7/8" at bar ends
• Most affordable balance between fatigue life, impact strength and impact absorbing flex
• High tech, stress relieved, shot peen, anodized finish for unmatched durability
• Independent lab tests show that the EVO handlebars outlast every other handlebar on the market in fatigue life
• Epoxy inner coating resists corrosion
• Left side knurling provides maximum grip traction
• Chemically applied cut lines and alignment grid are scratch and peel resistant
• End plugs help keep the elements out of the handlebar tubing and aid in longer grip life
• Comes with bar pad
