Charger 3 damper: Our highest-performing platform gives way to a new era of riding, where the decision between adding more damping and sacrificing your hands to a harsh ride doesn’t exist. Our goal; to reduce harshness that makes it to the rider’s hands, leading to having more control and confidence when riding at higher speeds. Through continued testing, learning, tinkering, and feedback provided by the fastest racers in the world, our highest performing damper technology has taken another step forward to deliver even greater results.

Bring Strength and control to your rig.

Our most popular bar doesn't just get wider. It gets stronger. By increasing the width of the Atlas 820 at the center, we were able to strengthen the bar while decreasing the weight. Pair this with 2 rise options, much loved 20mm, to super high 35mmm and up to 50mm of width tuning (can be trimmed down to 770mm), find your fit and control your ride.

Features:

• Manufactured from cold drawn 7075 Aluminium.
• 35 optimized triple butted design.
• Wider 820mm - can be trimmed to 770mm.

Specifications:

• Built For: AM / Enduro / DH.
• Sweep: 8° Rearward, 5° Upward.
• Bar Diameter: 35mm.
• Rise: 20mm.
• Weight: 315g.

The Atlas 35 stem was designed to reduce overall system weight while retaining the proven stiffness and performance the Atlas line is known for. The stem itself is measurably stiffer than the 31.8mm offering and, although the system is a seemingly burlier build, the weight savings gained by the reduction in bar material actually makes the 35 system lighter overall. An impressively light, strong addition to your aggressive trail or DH/FR build.

A low profile single lock on grip, designed to reduce arm pump and hand numbness. The Diamond knurled texture, with saw tooth finger ramps and a super tacky 20A compound provide ultimate traction. More traction means less death-gripping the bars and less arm pump. Our single lock has the profile of your favorite double lock-on. But to reduce hand numbness we've replaced the hard outer clamp with extra rubber for greater cushioning of your palm heel. Get all the benefits of an “ergonomic” grip without the city bike cruiser look!
