EC70 AX Handlebar

Carbon construction offers a lightweight yet incredibly strong design, enhancing your cycling performance. This material absorbs vibrations from the road, providing a smoother ride and reducing fatigue during long rides. Additionally, the strength-to-weight ratio of carbon fiber allows for better handling and responsiveness, making it ideal for both competitive and recreational cyclists.

The drop measurement determines how low the handlebars are compared to the top. A shorter drop allows for a more upright and comfortable riding position, which is great for casual rides or touring. Conversely, a deeper drop enables a more aerodynamic position, which can improve speed and efficiency during racing. Choosing the right drop is essential for maximizing comfort and performance based on your riding style.

Reach is crucial for ensuring a proper fit between the handlebars and your body size. A shorter reach allows for a more comfortable grip, making it easier to control the bike, especially for shorter riders. On the other hand, a longer reach can enhance aerodynamics, benefiting those who prioritize speed. Finding the right reach helps improve your overall cycling experience and performance.

Flare refers to the angle at which the drops of the handlebars are positioned. A 16-degree flare provides a wider grip, which enhances control and stability, particularly on rough or uneven terrain. This design allows for better handling during descents and technical sections, making it a great choice for mountain biking or gravel riding.

Di2 junction boxes are part of the electronic shifting system that allows for precise and smooth gear changes. They connect various components of the Di2 system, making it easier to shift gears with the push of a button. Compatibility with bar end mounted Di2 junction boxes means that you can integrate advanced shifting technology into your bike setup, enhancing your riding experience and performance.

Absolutely! Many handlebars come with options for different drop, reach, and flare measurements, allowing you to tailor them to your specific riding style and preferences. Whether you prioritize comfort for long rides or aerodynamics for racing, selecting the right combination of these features can significantly enhance your cycling experience.
