All Box handlebars are engineered and crafted using our Oversized Technology. Handlebars have a dual purpose as they contribute to both steering and pedaling stiffness. By strategically varying wall thicknesses and tube diameters, we have moved material from 3 low-stress areas to zones of high load. This has greatly minimized twist and contributed to responsiveness. Concurrently we have increased pedaling stiffness by providing a backstop to the lifting phenomenon. There is no point pushing hard on your pedals if you cant pull up on your handlebars and deliver that power. Power can easily be lost to handlebar-deflection and the consequences can lead to poor power delivery and steering control. When combined with Boxs other Oversized components, youll experience heightened responsiveness and reduced latency.
Key differences: This particular model handlebar is tailored for larger-sized racers. Titanium allows us to explore the structural rigidity of steel, but without the weight compromise. It is a solution as exotic as carbon fiber but gives a slightly different result for the discerning racer. Carbon will contribute to a more aggressive steering response, while titanium will feel highly sensitive but more refined.
