Product Information

Full details

The Gusset S2 Matt Jones Edition MTB Riser Handlebars are designed for aggressive trail, enduro, and dirt jump riders who demand a balance between structural strength and weight savings. Featuring a 35mm clamp diameter and high-grade 7075 aluminum, these bars offer exceptional stiffness for technical maneuvers and precise handling. While the 800mm width provides excellent leverage, riders who prefer a narrower cockpit will need to utilize the integrated cutting marks to customize the fit for their specific riding style.

FAQs

Are these bars compatible with 31.8mm stems?

No, these handlebars are strictly designed for 35mm clamp diameter stems.

Can I trim these to 760mm?

Yes, the provided easy-cut markings allow you to safely trim the bars down to your preferred width.

What is the material used for these bars?

They are constructed from high-grade 7075 butted aluminum.

Are these suitable for downhill riding?

Yes, their high strength-to-weight construction makes them suitable for aggressive riding, including downhill and enduro.

How do I maintain the finish?

Clean with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh solvents or high-pressure washers directly on the decals.

Troubleshooting

Handlebars slipping or rotating in the stem

Check the torque specs on your stem bolts; if torque is correct, clean both the bar and stem clamp surface with isopropyl alcohol to remove any grease or debris.

Creaking sounds during steering

Ensure the bar is properly centered in the stem clamp and that all bolts are tightened evenly to the recommended torque setting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High strength-to-weight ratio due to 7075 aluminum
  • Increased stiffness from the 35mm clamp standard
  • Ergonomic sweep angles reduce rider fatigue
  • Easy-to-follow trim lines for precise width adjustment
  • Durable construction suitable for aggressive MTB disciplines

Cons

  • Requires a 35mm stem for compatibility
  • Fixed 20mm rise may not suit all bike geometries
  • Requires professional tools to trim safely

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install these handlebars, ensure your stem is compatible with a 35mm clamp diameter. When mounting, center the bars using the markings provided and torque your stem bolts in a cross-pattern to the manufacturer's specified tension to avoid creating stress points. If you choose to shorten the bars, use a hacksaw with a fine-tooth blade and a metal-cutting guide; always deburr the edges with a file after cutting. To maintain the finish, clean with mild soapy water and avoid harsh chemical degreasers that may affect the signature decals. Regularly inspect the bar for deep scratches or impacts, especially if you experience a heavy crash.
