ProTaper Riser Bar

This handlebar requires a stem with a 35mm clamp diameter. Please check your current stem's specifications, as many older or lightweight setups use a 31.8mm standard, which will not be compatible.

Yes, the aluminum construction is designed to be cut down to your preferred width. Most riders use a standard hacksaw or pipe cutter, but be sure to measure twice and use a guide to ensure a clean, straight cut.

A 1/2-inch (12.7mm) rise provides a subtle lift to your cockpit, which helps keep your weight centered and your front end planted during climbs. It offers a balanced feel that is generally more aggressive than a flat bar but less upright than a high-rise option.

Yes, the combination of aluminum construction and the 35mm clamp diameter creates a very stiff, responsive platform. It is engineered specifically to handle the forces of technical descents and rough terrain without excessive flex.

Yes, ProTaper includes alignment markings on the bar. These make it much easier to center the bar in your stem and dial in your preferred roll angle for a consistent setup.
