Information

Robust as a DH handlebar and light as an XC sport, the Traverse SL 35 is our new handlebar and uses our decades of experience with carbon fiber to deliver precise control and exceptional comfort as well as a first-class weight to stiffness ratio.

Handlebars have become wider in recent years, which has presented some interesting challenges. Because the handlebars are wider, the leverage exerted at the clamp has increased dramatically. The Traverse SL has a diameter of 35 mm at the stem clamp. This increases strength in this crucial zone while dissipating clamping force over a larger surface area. More secure clamping and a durable handlebar - these are good things. Our years of experience with carbon fiber allow us to ensure maximum clamping surface strength and then adjust the layup to dampen the bar ends, resulting in a more comfortable and less tiring ride. The Traverse SL 35 is strong enough to attack the toughest terrain, durable and comfortable enough to pound the trails day after day, and light enough to make XC racers smile.
