Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Alloy MTB Bicycle Handlebar: SQlab 3OX with 12-Degree Angle by Richard Alemayehu

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great steering wheel with great swing

I saw this steering wheel at a show in Germany. I liked the concept, so I took a chance at the wheel. They are very well made, the extra flex gives more definition to the elbows and wrists. Combine this rod with some Ergon grips and eliminate the numbness. I found the 12 degree sweep to be ideal on the track and after a few minutes of riding the sweep came naturally. They have 16 degrees but I think that would be too much for downhill riding. I'm deducting 1 star for 2 reasons. 1. Height is not as advertised. I ordered a high rise which was supposed to be 40mm but actually it looks more like 20mm. And yes, I have confirmed that they sent the correct version.2. These aluminum bars are HEAVY! I weighed about 375 grams, which is a lot more than the 290 gram Answer bars I used to have on my bike. They make a carbon rod but I can't justify the cost.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
