Description
BIKE AHEAD COMPOSITES stem-handlebar unit The Unit 55 | UD carbon matte
A handlebar-stem combination can also be beautiful and functional...THE UNIT is a must-have on every mountain bike!
The trend towards complete integration is the focus of future bikes. The design language of the frames is complex and organic at the same time. Bike Ahead Composites wanted to harmoniously reflect these two requirements with the handlebar-stem combination THE UNIT. Nature has provided a model for this - a sea animal - the manta ray.
The design combines a dynamic and purposeful choice of lines with a unique internal stem clamp to create an aesthetic unit that cuts a fine figure on any bike.
In addition to the design, a safe and durable product was of course also the focus of development. At this point, the Würzburg company can draw on 10 years of CFRP expertise in terms of construction and fiber structure.
The result is very good damping in the handlebars and high torsional rigidity in the stem, which is perfectly rounded off by the patented NSA applications in the clamping area of the shift and brake levers.
But that's not all, Bike Ahead still has an ace up its sleeve!
In cooperation with Carbonworks, the German manufacturer of the lightest GPS computer mounts, a unique system was developed in which the mount can be mounted directly.
NOTE: The GPS holder must be purchased separately and is not part of the article!
