Easton Haven Carbon Riser Handlebar

A full 100 grams lighter than the alloy iteration, the Easton Haven Carbon Riser Handlebar is perfect for lift-served terrain or shuttles -- we find it more adept to enduro racing on wide-open trails. But, regardless of how you choose to use it, you're guaranteed a lightweight, rigid, and comfortable pair of bars. Easton made sure that the Carbon Riser Handlebar was consistent with the entire Haven mission: Make it all-mountain tough. So, the Haven Carbon Handlebar is actually stronger than most alloy bars. This is due to a number of factors, foremost being Easton's computer-controlled, TaperWall material application. This not only means that the bar is digitally designed, but that the layup itself is computer-controlled. This system prevents any flaws or voids in the construction that lead to later weaknesses. The result of the process is a handlebar that's laid up to work as a single-piece bar. This design allows stress forces to move along the entire length of the bar, rather than overloading any single portion. Full-on DH'ers may want to go even wider (look at the Havoc Carbon instead) , but for everyone else, this is the no compromises bar du jour. The Easton Haven Carbon Riser Handlebar is made of uni-directional carbon fiber and has a Matte Carbon finish with White and Champagne Haven logos. The 711mm wide bar has a 20mm rise, 9-degree backsweep, and 5-degree upsweep. It mates to a 31. 8mm oversize stem clamp.
