Pro Taper SE Handlebars Bars - CR Low Bend - Black

The SE (seven eighths) handlebars are the 'braced' style, offering classic looks and durability with a standard 7/8" diameter. Contour handlebars are 'unbraced' and utilize Pro Taper's Taperwall technology to offer a 1-1/8" clamping diameter with a 7/8" control area.

CR Low Bend refers to a specific handlebar geometry inspired by models like the Honda CR series. It generally offers a lower rise and less sweep compared to other bends, providing a more aggressive or compact riding position.

No, the Pro Taper SE series features a 7/8" (22.2mm) clamping diameter. You would need Pro Taper's 1-1/8" handlebars (like the Contour series) or a specific adapter/riser to use with 1-1/8" clamps.

Yes, the SE handlebars have a standard 7/8" diameter on the control ends, which is compatible with most 7/8" aftermarket grips.

They are constructed from ProTaper AS20 aerospace aluminum, known for its high strength and lightweight properties.

Yes, the 'SE' range is supplied with a cold-forged crossbar and a high-density, branded foam pad.

Re-check and tighten all mounting bolts for the triple clamp and control perches according to the manufacturer's torque specifications. Ensure the handlebar is correctly seated in the clamps.

Adjust the position of the controls on the handlebar. Ensure cables are not kinked or pinched. Verify that the handlebar bend is compatible and not forcing cables into an unnatural angle.

While designed to be scratch and peel-proof, extreme abrasion can cause damage. Clean the affected area gently and consider applying a clear protective film if the damage is minor. For significant damage, replacement may be necessary.

Ensure handlebars are torqued correctly. Consider using aftermarket grip donuts or bar-end dampeners designed to reduce vibration transfer. Check if control perches are properly lubricated.
