Gradient Carbon Riser Handlebar

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This bar is the real deal—tons of comfort without compromising stiffness when I push hard. I’ve put it through a full season of techy lines and big hits, and it still looks and feels dialed. The carbon layup really cuts down on buzz without deadening the trail feel."

FSA’s Gradient Carbon Riser Handlebar is built for riders who won’t settle for compromise—engineered to deliver stiffness, control, and vibration reduction in a lightweight carbon package. Crafted with a special layup for optimized compliance, it smooths out feedback from rooty chutes and chunky lines while staying razor-sharp on high-speed descents.

With 800mm of width and reinforced, textured clamping areas, it holds up to gravity-fueled abuse while offering tuning flexibility in both 31.8mm and 35mm clamp diameters. The 20–30mm rise keeps us centered on the bike, while the 8° back sweep and 5° up sweep dial in a natural wrist position for long rides and steep pitches.

Whether we’re chasing podiums or personal limits, this carbon bar is the upgrade that lets us ride harder, longer, and with more confidence—every single run.
