Innovative Design Enhancements
The latest iteration of BTCHN’ Bikes’ handlebars introduces a subtly bent cross-bar at the centre. This design modification not only reduces the likelihood of weld failure but also offers increased compliance, resulting in a smoother ride experience. The handlebars are available in two backsweep options—13° and 16°—with rise options of 35mm (low-rise), 50mm (mid-rise), and 70mm (high-rise). Each bar features a 22.2mm clamp diameter and an 800mm width, which can be trimmed to suit individual rider preferences. (btchnbikes.com)
