Bars

Handlebars connect you and your steering movements to the bike. The right set up is important for comfort and performance. Even milimeters in the rise or sweep of your bars will have an impact on the overall feel of the bike. Mountain and hybrid bikes have bars that can either be flat, a slight rise (riser bar) while road bikes use drop bars that come in many different forms. Bars are usually made out of aluminium, but the more expensive varietyt use carbon fibre.
