SQlab 321 3.0 Handlebar - 31.8 | City

The City bar that survives every curb. In the version 3.0, the SQlab 321 handlebar is designed for all cyclists who prefer a very upright sitting position on the City bike.

While 35 ° Backsweep (bend backwards) provide a natural arm position on the bike, the sensitive shoulder and neck area is relieved by 20 ° Downsweep. The downward bend lowers the elbows to allow for a natural posture.

Ergonomic features of the SQlab 321 3.0 handlebar

• Backsweep | 35° – Provides a straight transition from forearm to hand and reduces fingers falling asleep or numb.
• Downsweep | 20° – Provides a natural posture of the elbows which relaxes the neck and shoulder muscles.
• Rise | 70 mm – Allows an individual adjustment of the seating position.

Advantages of handlebars with Downsweep:

Handlebars with too little Downsweep force the hands to rotate inward. As a result, the elbows move outward while the shoulders are pulled toward the head. This unnatural posture can cause the shoulder and neck muscles to become very tense.

The combination of Downsweep and Backsweep provides a natural hand position and an elbow position close to the body. This natural posture lowers the shoulders and the muscles in the neck receive better blood flow and relax due to a looser position.

Safety & Quality | All SQlab comfort handlebars are manufactured to MTB standard and have passed the most demanding test protocol of the Zedler Institute for Downhill handlebars.
