The GCS 31. 8mm Handlebar sets a rider into an aggressive attacking position with 7 degrees of backsweep and 5 degrees of upsweep, geometry built for steep, technical descents rather than casual trail miles. Pembree put the bar through EFBE's TRI-TEST GR certification, a rigorous strength and durability standard built for freeride and downhill demands. An 800 millimeter width adds leverage for quick direction changes, and the bar comes in 20 millimeter and 40 millimeter rise options, so riders can dial cockpit height to their own bike and position. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I dropped into a chute steep enough to put most of my weight over the front wheel, and the backsweep kept my wrists in a natural position through the whole line."
