Handlebars have a dual purpose as they contribute to both steering and pedalling stiffness. By strategically \u003cb\u003evarying wall thicknesses and tube diameters\u003c\/b\u003e, we have moved material from 3 low-stress areas to zones of high load. This has greatly minimised twist and contributed to responsiveness. Concurrently we have increased pedalling 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey differences:\u003c\/b\u003e This particular model handlebar is tailored for larger-sized racers. Titanium allows us to explore the structural rigidity of steel, but without the weight compromise. It is a solution as exotic as carbon fibre 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOversized™ Technology:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e• Titanium - Strength of Steel Without Its Weight\u003cbr\u003e• Titanium - More Refined Steering Response vs. Carbon\u003cbr\u003e• Massive Clamp Interface for Steering Stiffness\u003cbr\u003e• Variable Wall Thickness to Reduce Weight\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e 6AL 4V Titanium\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eProcess:\u003c\/b\u003e Extruded and Mandrel Formed\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFinish:\u003c\/b\u003e Laser-Etched Graphics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Bar Bore: 31.8mm\u003cbr\u003e• Sweep: 7° back, 2° up\u003cbr\u003e• Width: 28.25”\u003cbr\u003e• Height: 8”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Clamp Diameter: 31.8mm\u003cbr\u003e• Grips: 22.2mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 680g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeets or exceeds ENBMX Category 2 standards\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Advance Traders","offers":[{"title":"Raw \/ 6.5 Inch","offer_id":51442754322733,"sku":"BX-HBH2231865-TI","price":508.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Raw \/ 7.5 Inch","offer_id":49406543233325,"sku":"BXHBH2231875TI","price":508.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Raw \/ 8 Inch","offer_id":49406543135021,"sku":"BX-HBH2231880-TI","price":508.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Raw \/ 8.5 Inch","offer_id":49406543200557,"sku":"BXHBH2231885TI","price":508.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0720\/2003\/3837\/files\/box-hex-lab-31_8mm-titanium-handle-bar-bars-advance-traders-raw-7_5-inch.jpg?v=1747895233","url":"https:\/\/www.luxbmx.com\/en-us\/products\/box-hex-lab-318mm-x-flat-titanium-handle-bar","provider":"LUXBMX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
