Specialized Hover Alloy Handlebars

The 15mm rise helps you achieve a more upright, comfortable riding position without needing to flip your stem or stack excessive spacers. It is particularly useful if you find standard drop bars put too much strain on your lower back or neck during longer rides.

The flare widens your hand position in the drops, which creates a more stable platform for descending and navigating technical terrain. This extra width provides better leverage and control, especially when you are riding on gravel or uneven road surfaces.

Yes, they are designed for versatility. The combination of a shallow drop and the flared design makes them equally capable for endurance road riding and gravel adventures where comfort and stability are priorities.

These handlebars use a standard 31.8mm clamp diameter, which is the most common size for modern road and gravel bikes. As long as your current stem is designed for 31.8mm bars, they will be compatible.

While these 6061 butted aluminum bars are slightly heavier than carbon alternatives, they offer excellent durability and a stiff, responsive feel. They are a reliable, cost-effective choice if you prioritize ruggedness and peace of mind over saving a few grams.
