Specialized Traverse SL 35mm MTB Handlebars

DH tough and XC light the Traverse SL 35 is our handlebar premiere and capitalizes on our decades of carbon fiber experience to deliver precise control and exceptional comfort along with class leading strength to weight performance.
Handlebars have grown wider in recent years and this has presented some interesting challenges. Because bars are wider leverage stress exerted at the stem has risen dramatically. The Traverse SL features a 35mm diameter at the stem cl this increases strength in this crucial zone while also dissipating the bar clamp load across a larger surface area. More secure clamping and a stronger handlebar – these are good things. Meanwhile our extensive experience with carbon fiber allows us to ensure maximum strength at the clamp and then tailor the carbon fiber layup to providing damping at the bar-ends resulting in a more comfortable less fatiguing ride. The Traverse SL 35 is strong enough to attack the gnarliest terrain durable and comfortable enough to hammer the chunder day in day out and light enough to make XC racers smile.
