Spank Spoon Handlebar

The Spoon is primarily built for mountain biking. Its construction is versatile enough to handle everything from trail riding to more aggressive all-mountain sessions.

A 25mm rise is a standard 'mid-rise' that helps put you in a more upright, neutral position. This generally provides better control and comfort on technical terrain compared to a flat bar, as it takes some weight off your hands and improves front-end maneuverability.

While the Spoon is durable and reliable for general mountain biking, it is positioned as an all-around performer. If you are exclusively racing downhill or hitting massive jumps daily, you might consider Spank's more specialized gravity-focused bars, but for most riders, the Spoon offers plenty of strength.

Most modern mountain bike stems use a 31.8mm clamp diameter, which is the industry standard for this bar. Before purchasing, double-check your current stem's clamp size to ensure compatibility.

Spank engineers these bars to balance stiffness with compliance. It provides a solid, responsive feel for steering precision while still offering enough vibration damping to reduce hand fatigue on longer, rougher rides.
