Hunter High Rise Bar Silver ¥ 14,080-INC TAX
Created through a collaboration between frame builder Rick Hunter and NITTO, this original HUNTER CYCLES handlebar is ideal not just for its high rise but also for its back sweep. Ideal for a more relaxed, cruising style rather than intense riding sessions, it offers the same color choice flexibility as the for shred bar.
When mounted, it transforms your bike’s look, especially when paired with a rack, making it even more suited for urban cruising.
W-Base Get Up High Bar ¥ 8,800-INTAX
Reimagined from the "BORN TO BE WIDE BAR," this handlebar is designed with gravel and trick scenes in mind. Its moderate rise facilitates easy front lifts, enhancing the street riding experience by broadening the rider’s field of view.
The white lettering adds a stylish accent.
ENVE M6 Carbon Bar ¥ 34,980-INC TAX
Available in a low-rise model and a 25mm rise variant, ENVE’s riser bars stand out not just for their lightweight carbon build but also for their strength. Suited for use in MTB scenarios, they're built tough yet offer flexibility, making them a top recommendation for a riser bar setup.
