Buy Bicycle Handlebars Affordably at the starbike.com Online Shop

The handlebar holds special importance on a bicycle, as it is one of the three contact points between the rider and the bike, alongside the saddle and pedals. Therefore, the choice of handlebar has significant impacts on riding behavior and comfort.

Handlebars that are not properly shaped for the rider can lead to numbness in the hands, as well as neck or back pain over time. A carefully selected mountain bike or road bike handlebar, especially with the right handlebar grips, can significantly enhance riding comfort. Besides the width of the handlebar, the curvature and bend are crucial for a pleasant riding experience.

While bicycle handlebars were previously mainly made of steel, today there is a shift towards using lighter materials such as titanium, aluminum, or carbon. Additionally, handlebar shapes have significantly evolved and improved, with options including bent handlebars and ergonomic designs.

Different materials each have their own unique properties. Generally, after a crash, it is essential to inspect the bicycle handlebar for cracks or damage. In cases of doubt, replacement is necessary, as a damaged handlebar poses a considerable safety risk.

In our bicycle handlebar online shop, you will find a wide selection of various handlebars, including those from manufacturers such as WhiskyComponents, FSA, Schmolke, Salsa, and Surly.
