There's not a great deal to say about handlebars normally, but these are manufactured from carbon composite. With such a material you have to be quite careful, remember it is not metal, it reacts more like wood. The key thing to remember: the torque wrench is your friend.


Now the handlebars are on, I can put a restraint on the bars to stop the front end flapping about when I'm twisting and turning the bike around during the next steps of the build.


I fancy another beer.
