Box Hex Lab Oversized Titanium Race Handlebar - Titanium

All Box handlebars are engineered and crafted using our Oversized Technology.

Handlebars have a dual purpose as they contribute to both steering and pedaling stiffness. By strategically varying wall thicknesses and tube diameters, Box have moved material from 3 low-stress areas to zones of high load. This has greatly minimized twist and contributed to responsiveness.

Concurrently Box have increased pedaling stiffness by providing a backstop to the ��lifting�� phenomenon. There is no point pushing hard on your pedals if you can��t pull up on your handlebars and deliver that power. Power can easily be lost to handlebar-deflection and the consequences can lead to poor power delivery and steering control. When combined with Box��s other Oversized components, you��ll experience heightened responsiveness and reduced latency.

Key differences: This particular model handlebar is tailored for larger-sized racers. Titanium allows Box to explore the structural rigidity of steel, but without the weight compromise. It is a solution as exotic as carbon fiber but gives a slightly different result for the discerning racer. Carbon will contribute to a more aggressive steering response, while titanium will feel highly sensitive but more refined.

Weight Limit: 115kg (253 lbs) with limitations as per Category 2 of EN 16054:2012 Standard.
