OneUp ComponentsCarbon Riser Bar (35.0mm)(Return to Product Page)

Carbon bars are definitely a 'luxury' item that are also on the bling list for many. As such - almost every component mfg. and some bike frame mfg. have all produced a product to get a share in this market. It's nice to see a brand stand out with truly different tech that actually works. I don't know about percentages of improved compliance but coming from a set of perfectly good RF SixC bars, the OneUp Components Carbon bar definitely rides smoother in chattery terrain. I ride a shorter travel (130 / 120mm), 29" trail bike (Evil FMB) pretty much everywhere and where I feel it the most is blasting around berms that have seen better days or just chunky rock gardens. It just seems to take the edge off the impact and somehow make it feel more controllable with little loss of feel or precision. I don't doubt that it could also help with long distance hand issues but that hasn't really been an issue for me on the trail bike - the fully rigid gravel bike is another story though. OUC - are you listening?

I've been using OneUp bars on my bikes for a couple years now. The best thing I noticed when I first made the switch is not having hand fatigue on 2+ hour rides. The bars have just the right amount of stiffness and compliance when and where you need it.

I was replacing my stock bars with 25mm rise, which was perfect. I wasn't sure whether to go up to 35mm or down to 20mm. I guessed wrong. like these bars a lot, but the 35mm rise ended up being too much for me. So I ordered the 20mm bar and it feels much better. They're nice and light and fairly affordable. A nice and easy upgrade for your mtb.

I have to say, I've seen these bars on some of my buddies' bikes, but, I was still impressed with the quality and finish of the product when it came out of the box. It looks great on my bike and has relieved some of my hand fatigue/hand pump that has been bothering me lately. It is a little more expensive than some of the other carbon options out there, but, I think it was totally worth the price.

Absolutely awesome bars. They dampen chatter really well.

It's a whole different feel of a handle bar.

Highly recommended!

Bought these for my wife, hoping to help with some wrist pain she was getting from the stock Santa Cruz bars on her Nomad 4. These bars from OneUp definitely delivered, she loves them! Great price, and great looking bars as well. I was a little nervous about cutting carbon bars myself, but was actually super easy with a fine tooth hack saw.
