Era SL Handlebar Explained

Learn why Era SL is the ultimate downcountry handlebar.

Flip To Fit

Designed with a flippable +6mm / -6mm rise, the Era SL bar allows precise cockpit height adjustment without altering fit so riders can maintain consistent back sweep and up sweep in either orientation.

Pair it with the Turbine SL stem for up to 24mm of total cockpit height adjustability, allowing the freedom to dial in position for XC racing, long trail days, or aggressive Downcountry descending.

Feel The Sweet Spot

Not too stiff. Not too soft. Era SL delivers the balanced ride feel XC racers and Downcountry riders demand. Its precise carbon layup features our meticulously developed Goldilocks (GL) Tune—the sweet spot of compliance preferred by most riders. Responsive under power, forgiving when the trail gets rough.

Light, snappy and comfortable. Combined with a 50mm Turbine SL stem, my cockpit feels ultra responsive and my wrists are happier. Seems easier to pop the front over roots and rocks now too.

Frequently asked questions

Can I adjust the width of this handlebar?

Yes, the Era SL Handlebar comes at a width of 760mm and is designed to be trimmable down to 720mm. Please note that trimming the bars may increase their overall stiffness.

Are there specific stem requirements for this bar?

Yes. To ensure safety and performance, this bar is designed for use with stems having a maximum clamp width of 60mm. Please note that it is not compatible with wider stems, such as those used for Direct Mount setups.

What material is used for construction?

The Era SL is constructed from high-grade UD (Unidirectional) Carbon. This material selection is central to achieving the perfect balance between extreme low weight, high strength, and the specific flex characteristics required for trail compliance.

Does the handlebar come in different color options?

Yes, the Era SL Handlebar is available in three distinct, premium finishes to match your bike’s aesthetic:

  • Stealth
  • Silver
  • Kashmoney

Each finish is designed to maintain a clean, professional look regardless of whether you mount the bar in the positive or negative rise position.

How does the flip-to-fit feature affect my hand position?

The Flip To Fit technology allows you to switch between a +6mm or -6mm rise without changing your geometry. Because the bend is engineered to be consistent regardless of orientation, it maintains the feel of an 8° back sweep and 5° up sweep, ensuring your ergonomic hand position remains comfortable and consistent in either configuration.

Is this carbon bar durable enough for eMTB use?

Absolutely. While it is engineered to be the lightest in its class at 170g, it is fully eMTB ready. It is built to withstand the demands of Downcountry, XC, and Trail riding on bikes with up to 140mm of travel.

Lifetime Warranty, Crashes Included.

Crashes are part of mountain biking. When they happen, we have your back.
