When handlebars went from 25.4 millimeters to 31.8 millimeters, many people questioned the benefits, and complained of a planned obsolescence conspiracy. As the standard now evolves from 31.8 to 35 millimeters, there is no doubt as to the superiority of the larger diameter. Thirty five millimeter handlebars are lighter and stiffer, a fact proven in laboratories and test centers of every major component manufacturer. The larger bars are so much stiffer that the Race Face Atlas 35 Rider Handlebar is meticulously tuned down to provide a feel consistent with 31.8 millimeter bars, which most riders find to be more comfortable. The end result is a bar that is lighter, more resilient, and just as forgiving as the one you are used to. At 305 grams, the Atlas 35 is very light for an 800 millimeter wide handlebar, and, as you trim the ends, which you will most likely do to some extent, they will only get lighter. Don't cut below 750 millimeters, though. At that point the stiffness to weight ratios are actually better on a 31.8 millimeter bar. Available in rises from 10 to 35 millimeters, there is an Atlas available that will fit your set-up exactly. Race Face's contour graphics and anodized finish make the Atlas bars look as great as they perform.
