Giant Contact SL Riser Road Handlebar Description:

The Giant Contact SL Riser Road Handlebar is a road bar that uses advanced construction techniques to bring comfort and fit flexibility to road bikes. The most striking feature of these bars is the 20mm rise above the stem clamp area on the top section of the bar which creates a higher hand position, and this is especially useful for a rider looking to add height to their hand position on a bike that has a low stack height or the bike doesn’t allow for the ability to add a high rise stem or a fork steerer tube extender. And the shallow drop combined with the shallow reach of these bars make it much easier for a rider to move their hands over the different positions on these bars. Add in the fact that existing shift and brake cables do not have to be replaced when adding these bars to a bike and the affordable price of these bars, and these bars become a comfortable, durable, and economical upgrade that will make it easy for a rider to dial in the fit on their road bike.

Features:

• Advanced alloy construction creates a lightweight, stiff, and strong bar, but at the same time with some compliance to take the edge off of bumps and road vibrations
• Unique 20mm rise up from the stem clamp area helps to offer a taller hand height/slightly more upright riding position on bikes with a low stack height without resorting to a high rise stem or steerer tube extender
• Short reach and shallow drops allow for faster transitions from the top of the bar, to the hoods, and down into the drops
