FAQs
Will this bar fit my 31.8mm oversized stem?
No, this bar is specifically designed for a 25.4mm clamp diameter. You would need a reducer shim to use it with a 31.8mm stem.
Can I use this bar for downhill mountain biking?
While durable for general MTB use, it is best suited for cross-country and hybrid applications rather than extreme downhill racing.
How do I measure my current bar diameter?
You can measure the center section of your current handlebar using a digital caliper to confirm if it measures 25.4mm.
Does this bar come with grips?
No, the riser bar is sold as a standalone component; grips and end plugs must be purchased separately.
Is the 590mm width easy to cut down?
Yes, if you prefer a narrower profile, the ends can be cut down using a standard hacksaw, though we recommend careful measurement before cutting.
Troubleshooting
Handlebars slipping in the stem
Ensure the stem bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification and check that the clamping surfaces are clean and free of grease.
Bar feels too narrow for the bike frame
The 590mm width is fixed; if you require more leverage, ensure your stem length is optimized, or consider if this width meets your specific steering requirements before installation.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Improved upright posture reduces rider fatigue
- Standard 25.4mm diameter fits many common stem sizes
- Durable build quality suitable for various terrains
- Balanced width for both control and narrow navigation
Cons
- Not compatible with 31.8mm oversized stems without a shim
- Fixed 590mm width cannot be extended
- Limited to black color option
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires a 25.4mm stem clamp; ensure you center the bar precisely to maintain balanced handling. When tightening the stem faceplate bolts, follow a cross-pattern sequence to distribute torque evenly and prevent bar slippage. For maintenance, keep the surface clean by wiping away salt or moisture after wet rides to preserve the finish. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the coating, and periodically inspect the clamping area for any signs of surface wear or fatigue.
