Easton Haven Carbon handlebar


EASTON PRETTY MUCH forged the reputation of reliable carbon fibre bars back in the day and their latest Haven Carbon offering doesn't disappoint.

At 740mm it's got enough leverage to fight into and out of most hardcore trail sections but it's not so wide you'll be clipping bark on tight tree-lined trails. Easton's vast carbon experience gives the Haven's gradually butted Taperwall construction a fantastic feel too - forgiving most of the time, but with enough backbone when you need to press a power move home. The shape is similarly balanced and friendly whatever rotation angle you like to run. Weight is impressive too, it's one of the few carbon bars with colour choices and there's a slightly stiffer but 10g lighter 35mm diameter version too.

Weight 198g
Width 740mm
Rise 20mm
Backsweep 9°
Upsweep 5°

PRICE 190$
