Thomson Cross Country Carbon MTB Handlebars | 31.8mm
$174.95
The Thomson Carbon Flatbars optimized for Cross Country.
A flatbar with an off-center clamp area allowing for a flat riding position and that is reversible for a 5 mm aggressive drop. The 8° backsweep adds comfort and a 730 mm width provides plenty of leverage.
These premium handlebars are made with three different types of fiber with different tensile strength and tensile modulus, including high strength carbon fibers. This helps to allocate stiffness and flex where it is needed. All carbon fiber material is produced by Toray and uses tailor made nano Epoxy Resin for very high impact resistance. 1.5K woven impact ends help prevent damage to unidirectional fibers from shortening the bar or impact with the ground. Molded with an EPS inner mandrel (vs. bladder) to avoid wrinkles during the vacuum bagging process. The result is a perfect one piece molded bar, with zero inner wall imperfections. The process yields precisely engineered stiffness and flex while keeping the weight to a minimum.
Pair the Carbon handlebars with the Elite X4 stem, and both with the Elite or Masterpiece seatpost for a matching cockpit.
