ProTaper PT02-7936 Contour Mini High Bend Handlebar Gold

ProTaper Contour Mini Handlebars

Oversize diameter handlebars without crossbars were invented and patented by ProTaper. This unique design allows the bar to flex and absorb impacts better than standard 7/8" bars. The ProTaper Contour bar is ProTaper’s best selling handlebar without a crossbar. The intentional bar flex leads to increased rider comfort and less fatigue, while the oversize diameter at the bar clamp area maintains bar integrity. The Contour handlebar utilizes a computer profiled 5mm wall design, making it 20% lighter than most bars and 40% stronger.

• Oversize 1-1/8" at bar clamp, tapers to 7/8" at bar ends
