Van Nicholas, renowned for its titanium frames, has added a 31.8mm flat handlebar made from titanium.
The handlebar, made from 3Al/2.5V titanium is the latest addition to the company's existing range of ti components, including such items as stems, seatposts, seat collars, bar ends and skewers. Measuring 580mm wide (22.8”) and weighing 154g, it's a bar destined for the cockpits of lightweight race ready bikes, make no mistake.
Van Nicholas claims “titanium is the best material for a handlebar as it is light, strong and delivers an amazing amount of comfort thanks to its in-built flex.”
