The Contour Handlebar is ProTaper’s most popular model. Oversized-diameter handlebars without crossbars were invented and patented by ProTaper in 1991. Without sacrificing strength, this design yields increased flex and impact absorption over conventional handlebars, offering the rider improved comfort and reduced fatigue. With its 2000 series aluminium alloy construction and computer-profiled 5 mm-thick wall design, the Contour Handlebar is up to 20% lighter and 40% stronger than competing handlebars. It’s also the most affordable way to equip your bike with the 1?” handlebar design that changed the industry. Features: 1?” tubing at the clamping area Exclusive 5 mm-thick 2000 series T6 aluminium alloy for superior tensile and yield strengths Best balance between fatigue life, impact strength, and impact-absorbing flex at a price point High-tech shot peened, stress-relieved, and anodized finish for unmatched durability Clutch side knurling provides maximum grip adhesion Chemically applied cut lines and alignment grid are scratch- and peel-resistant Plastic end plugs keep the elements out and provide a stronger base for grip ends Weighs only 1.55 lbs.
