Truvativ Stylo T40 10s Flat Bar 700mm
For lovers of wide handlebars, the latest Stylo range covers pretty much everything you need for trail riding or for your 29er bike. Providing an array of new widths and styles for 2012, the latest Truvativ mountain bike handlebar range has strengthened an already impressive lineup. While Noir represents the very height of carbon technology, similarly the Stylo name represents the very best alloy technology with lightweight and bombproof handlebars featuring both riser bars and flat bar options. Replacing last years World Cup "Singlespeed" model, the T40 700mm flat bar is working its way onto more bikes than just singlespeeds, with it's wide and low position appealing to 29er and trail riders wanting a more aggressive stance on their bike.
If you feel like carbon bars are overpriced and overhyped, the Truvativ Stylo range gets you the same option in a lightweight alloy construction. Using custom butted 7050 Aluminum Alloy, the Stylo T40 range is strong as it is light and will suit aggressive riders who are rough on their gear. The 700mm width used on the T40 provides added leverage and stability to your cockpit as it widens your stance on the front of the bike and allows you to really lean the bike over in the corners for faster and more aggressive cornering. For 29er bikes and riders wanting to lower their cockpit, a quality flat bar can allow you increase your weight distribution onto the front wheel for more responsive handling, without that "chopper" feel you can sometimes get with tall riser bars. If you're finding your front tyre tends to wash out and understeer on fast corners, or you get that wandering sensation on the climbs, a lower handlebar position can help improve these areas.
From TruVativ:
"Boost your power and control on the trail. Made with lightweight, tough 7050 alloy - custom butted and shaped for performance - the 700mm wide T40 10S Flat Bar is a great choice for 29ers, single-speeders or anyone who prefers the feel of an extra-wide bar.
