Pro Taper Contour Bar YZ High Black 28.6mm

Introduction

Contour Handlebars
The Contour Handlebar is ProTapers most popular model. Oversized-diameter handlebars without crossbars were invented and patented by ProTaper in 1991. Without sacrificing strength, this design yields increased flex and impact absorption over conventional handlebars, offering the rider improved comfort and reduced fatigue. With its 2000 series aluminum alloy construction and computer-profiled 5 mm-thick wall design, the Contour Handlebar is up to 20% lighter and 40% stronger than competing handlebars making it the most affordable way to equip your bike with the 1 1/8″ handlebar design that changed an industry.
