CUSTOM FINISH

By default, our handlebars come with a UD matte finish, offering a clean, minimalist aesthetic with a smooth black surface. For those seeking a more customized or eye-catching look, we offer optional finishes at an additional cost:

  • You shine
    Glossy black finish on UD fiber.
    Ideal for those who prefer a more polished and elegant aesthetic.
    Keeps the surface smooth, with no visible pattern.
  • 12K gloss
    Glossy finish on 12K carbon fabric.
    The interlaced pattern of the fiber remains visible, providing a distinctive, technical look.
    Recommended for those who want to highlight the carbon character of the piece.
  • 12K matte
    Matte finish on 12K fiber.
    Combines the visible pattern with a more discreet and professional aesthetic.
    Perfect for those seeking a balance between sophistication and performance.
LIGHTWEIGHT VS PERFORMANCE

By default, all our handlebars come with the Lightweight layup, designed to offer the lowest possible weight without compromising responsiveness or comfort. For those seeking a more aggressive and explosive ride, the Performance option is available, with increased stiffness and durability.

- Lightweight (included by default)

  • Ultralight laminate from 156 gr .
  • Maximum vibration absorption in the direction of the arms, which improves comfort and reduces fatigue on long routes.
  • High responsiveness to turning thanks to the GMN section design, more sensitive than conventional round handlebars.
  • Optimized for riders up to 90 kg .
  • Recommended for those who prioritize lightness, efficiency and comfort on technical terrain.
  • It is not designed to withstand certain impacts: it is a high-performance piece focused on XC competition.

- Performance

  • More rigid laminate from 210 gr.
  • Greater torsional rigidity, especially useful in sprints and high-intensity maneuvers.
  • More direct and precise driving, with greater responsiveness in every movement.
  • Increases structural resistance to falls and impacts.
  • Suitable for cyclists up to 120 kg , offering greater safety in demanding conditions.
MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE HANDLEBAR

Pröpus is the jewel in the crown for XC riders who only ride the best. Its one-piece carbon body is designed to give you maximum control with minimal weight and an aesthetic that will turn heads.

Pröpus combines engineering and design into a single piece, allowing shape and material to work together to enhance your cycling performance.
Its design is optimized so that the Carbon fiber works efficiently, offering maximum precision and control in turns, allowing you to take the bike exactly where you want. At the same time, its vertical absorption reduces upper body fatigue, while the ergonomic central design promotes an aerodynamic position that allows you to go faster and more efficiently.

Each handlebar is handcrafted in our Barcelona workshop , using our own technology and the finest carbon fiber. The result is a unique, exclusive, and limited-production piece.

  • Available Carbon Laminate Configurations :

    • Lightweight (default) : from 149 g, maximum lightness and comfort for long routes.
    • Performance : +35 g, greater rigidity and durability in case of falls, for aggressive riding.
  • XC optimized geometry :

    • Width: 740 mm (other measurements upon request)
    • Upsweep: 5°, Backsweep: 7°

  • Finish:
    • Standard: UD Mate.
    • Customized, on request: fiber finish, UD or 12K. Gloss or Matte coating.
    • Custom Lab: Take your handlebar paint to the next level and make it unique.
  • Includes:
    • Integrated forged carbon lid
    • Titanium screws for the cover and the handlebar.

PROPUS

a work of engineering for XC.

DESIGNED AND MANUFACTURED IN BARCELONA TO GET THE MOST OUT OF XC RACES

PRÖPUS is not just another XC handlebar, it is the reflection of hours of engineering to create an ultra-light and ultra-resistant handlebar, its unibody design and the materials with which it is built will allow you to fly over the terrain.

UNIBODY DESIGN SPECIFIC TO CROSS COUNTRY

PRÖPUS is a handlebar developed to allow you to go faster on climbs, provide comfort in the roughest areas, and increase your control on technical descents with maximum integration and a simple, clean aesthetic.

149 g.* OF PURE ENGINEERING AND RESISTANCE

PRÖPUS is not an ultralight handlebar simply because we decided to remove material; each layer is studied and optimized to perform at its best. Together with its unibody design, it offers unmatched resistance compared to a conventional handlebar.

*5% variation margin

NO ASSEMBLY STRESS

By eliminating the connection between the stem and handlebars, the tensions generated by the preloads generated during assembly are eliminated, preventing the handlebar from slipping. The areas subject to compression, which deform the part and cause delamination of the fiber layers, reducing resistance, are also eliminated.

VOLTAGE DISTRIBUTION

The continuity of the material between the stem and the handlebar facilitates the distribution of stresses over a larger area, allowing them to flow along the handlebar, eliminating areas with high buildup and thus increasing overall strength.

GMN SECTION

Circular sections behave the same in all directions, which is why we developed the GMN section with two basic purposes: to reduce hand fatigue due to vibrations and forces, and to increase reactivity and control when turning.

VERTICAL ABSORPTION

By reducing the vertical section we achieve greater absorption of vertical impacts and vibrations, this translates into less fatigue in the hands and being able to maintain a high rate of descent, aluminum bar

SPIN REACTIONS

By increasing the horizontal section, we manage to increase the rigidity of the handlebar against the forces exerted by the pilot to turn, this translates into more direct and reactive steering control. Carbon bar

INTEGRATION DOWN TO THE LAST DETAIL

We've fully integrated the most visible part of the bike, using our unique cover, which hides the top screw, leaving a hole for inserting just a Torx wrench to tighten it, giving the cockpit a cleaner look.

OPTIMIZED GEOMETRY FOR XC, WITH ADVANCES OF 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 AND 100 mm.

XC-specific geometry developed to lower your center of gravity and give you maximum control on both the most technical climbs and the most broken descents.

MADE WITH THE BEST INTERMEDIATE MODULUS CARBON FIBER

PROPUS is made with the best fiber currently available, Mitsubishi MR70, its layout has been optimized to help you endure hours on the bike, providing you with greater comfort and safety.

CARBON FIBER

Not all carbon fibers are created equal, which is why we've chosen the strongest carbon fiber with an intermediate modulus. Mitsubishi MR70 is a cutting-edge, high-end carbon fiber developed for the highest demands of the aerospace industry. This is the best way to ensure the handlebar's best performance and increase strength while reducing weight.

SPECIFIC BLADDER DESIGN

What you don't see is as important as what you do, which is why we've created a custom-made bladder for each handlebar size. This allows us to perfectly adapt to its shape and achieve perfect fiber compaction, preventing the formation of wrinkles and resin pools.

CONSTRUCTION

The properties of the material are very important, but so is the construction structure of the pieces, which is why we use a "sandwich" structure, using woven fiber in the outer and inner layers to increase resistance to delamination due to impacts, and a whole core of UD fiber that guarantees us to obtain the best mechanical and structural properties of the fiber.

TITANIUM

The best material for contact with carbon fiber is titanium. Thanks to its chemical properties, it behaves like a noble material, preventing any type of galvanic corrosion. That's why we chose it, along with its balanced mechanical properties and weight, for all the hardware.

SUBJECTED TO THE MOST DEMANDING TESTS

PROPUS has been tested in the field and in the laboratory, passing very demanding endurance tests. Thanks to its unibody design and the material used, it offers unparalleled resistance, making it a piece optimized for competition.
