Hope Tech Carbon handbars come from extensive testing and feedback from riders to enhance performance. They may be a little late to the 35mm handlebar party, but the new 35.0 bars should prove to be worth the wait. Investigation into existing 35mm bars showed that most people found them uncomfortably stiff and Hope knew they had to make something better. After extensive research, testing and even development of a new manufacturing process Hope produced a bar that even surpassed the compliance of the existing 31.8mm bar without compromising strength. Like the 31.8mm bar, the 35.0 bar has been designed for use as an All Mountain bar, but in tests these bars have strength that surpassess many DH bars.
