SL STANDS FOR SUPER LIGHT, and this bar fits the description. Made from Easton’s proprietary MicroWeave carbon fiber, the SL weighs a mere 135 grams yet exhibits extraordinary strength.
Design Objective: Create a riser bar that weighs no more than a lightweight cross-country flat bar without sacrificing strength and safety.
The Technical Challenge: Create a carbon fiber handlebar with high impact strength, and low weight. Traditionally, carbon fiber bars have performed poorly in impact. Easton CT2 designs have set new standards of impact absorption—all in a 135 gram package!
What should you look for? Stiffness, fatigue and impact strength, and weight are all important. Ride quality is also very noticeable in handlebars because you hold them directly. Generally, when you reduce the weight, you lose stiffness and strength. Easton’s CT2 technology allows us to make a lighter bar that is far stronger than any other and offers excellent ride characteristics.
Using custom-designed test machines, we measured the stiffness, strength and fatigue life of competitive components. vibration damping characteristics. An extremely light and long-lasting bar. While incredibly stiff, the MonkeyLite SL absorbs vibrations because of our technology that places material exactly where it is needed along the length of the bar. Gram for gram, this is the strongest riser bar on the planet.
