Handlebars

LEVEL Gravel Riser handlebars were developed with gravel riding in mind; a 20mm rise provides multiple hand positions and more space on the bars when running a barbag. Flared drops ensure a wider, more stable stance to improve handling and control when descending or tackling technical terrain. A comfortably padded LEVEL bar tape and matching LEVEL handlebar stem complete this lightweight and versatile ensemble.
