Handlebars, Tapes and Lock-in Plugs

The bicycle handlebar is not just limited to steering. It also provides support to your body, especially when you use your bicycle for multi-day racing events or long-distance tours. In short races, your body weight is concentrated on the pedals or crankset. On one hand, when you join bike tours or long cycling events, you will rely a lot on the handlebar and saddle for support. As such, it’s important to invest in the right handlebar and handlebar accessories. 

Back in the earlier days, bars feature subtle curves and enough room for your hands. Modern bars, on the other hand come with a square design with a shorter reach. You can either choose from aluminium or carbon-fibre, depending on your budget and preference. You can also select from bike bars with different shapes, styles and sizes.
