When RaceFace engineers were tasked with creating a new mountain bike handlebar, they didn't just grab a bar of the shelf and call it a day.
They have been developing the Era bar for over 5 years now, and have gone through many iterations in order to find the perfect balance of compliance and stiffness for every rider.
That sweet spot of compliance they were able to find is called the GL tune, short for Goldilocks. Not only did they find the perfect level of compliance for their carbon layup for this new Era bar, all of their research and development taught them that a one size fits all approach just doesn't work for handlebars.
The engineers found that when you cut a bar down to your desired width, you end up making your bars much stiffer than they were designed. This lead the team to create handlebars with sizes and rises that had the desired levels of compliance for all riders.
The Era bar comes in 760mm, 780mm and 800mm widths and 10mm, 20mm and 40mm rises with an 8° bend and 5° upsweep.
