Thomson Carbon Cross Drop Bar - 40cm

Product Description

For Cyclocross, presenting the carbon CX bar. It’s the natural transition from your Thomson road bar for the ‘cross season. Twin flats on the bottom of the bar allow taping your housing to create a round bar when wrapped. The top profile is round & as wide as possible. This is the carbon fibre cyclocross handlebar built to take all the season can dish out. This allows auxiliary brake levers to be safely used & still leaves lots of room for your hands. Certified to EN, tested to DIN+. The layup uses 3 different fibre types with different tensile strengths & tensile modulus, including High Strength carbon fibre. This helps allocate stiffness & flex where needed. All carbon fibre is produced by Toray & uses tailor-made Nano Epoxy Resin for very high impact resistance. Toray is the main supplier of carbon fibre for Boeing & Airbus. The ‘ Cross bars are made in one piece, not three pieces co-moulded & glued together. The bars are moulded over an EPS mandrel to avoid wrinkles inside the layup during moulding. Most other bars are moulded over inflatable nylon bladders. Available in 40cm, 42cm & 44cm widths. 78.5mm Reach. 131mm, 133mm, 135mm Drop, proportional to widths. Toray Triple Carbon blend. Moulded with EPS mandrel, improves internal layup.
