Race Face Era MTB Handlebar

Shape the future

The Era handlebar was designed from the ground up, narrowing the stem clamp area to allow both a quicker taper and an earlier rise to achieve Race Face's meticulously researched Goldilocks (GL) tune. GL tune is the sweet spot for compliance preferred by most riders; stiffer was too harsh, softer was too flexible.

Less trimming. More comfort

Trimming bars makes them stiffer and ultimately, less comfortable. Instead of making only 800 mm lengths and expecting riders to cut them down, Race Face made six carbon bars in your size and rise, all hitting their GL tune for reduced fatigue.

Strength in numbers

Race Face took nearly 100 individual pieces of hand-laid carbon fiber and bound them using a toughened epoxy resin, with a specific layup for each bar variant. The result is the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any handlebar they tested.

Give arm pump the axe

Era is Race Faces carbon answer to arm pump and hand fatigue. Ride harder, ride faster and enjoy a consistently compliant feel in every width and every rise.
