FSA SL-K Compact Carbon Handlebar

The combination of UD carbon and Kevlar creates a monocoque structure that is both stiff and lightweight. The Kevlar adds an extra layer of durability and vibration damping, which helps smooth out road buzz during longer rides.

This handlebar uses a standard 31.8mm clamp diameter, which is compatible with the vast majority of modern road stems. If your current stem is 31.8mm, this bar will fit perfectly.

The 125mm drop and 80mm reach are designed to keep the drops more accessible, making it easier to transition between the hoods and the drops without needing extreme flexibility. It is an ideal setup for riders who want a more comfortable, less aggressive position for endurance riding.

Yes, the handlebar features a 120mm wide round center section specifically designed for mounting accessories. This provides plenty of space for out-front computer mounts and light brackets without interfering with your hand position.

The 4-degree flare widens the drops slightly compared to the hoods, which provides a more stable and ergonomic platform when you are descending or sprinting. It offers a bit more wrist clearance and control without being as aggressive as the flare found on gravel-specific bars.

While the center section is round, you should always check the specific torque requirements and compatibility guidelines provided by the aero bar manufacturer. Because this is a carbon handlebar, it is critical to use a torque wrench and ensure your clip-on bars are approved for use with carbon components.
