BJORN handlebars Palka 3K Carbon 5 mm Rise | 31.8 x 740 mm | 8.5°
From the southern edge of the Alps, from beautiful Slovenia, come the fine handmade parts from BJORN Carbon. A small team of cycling enthusiasts develops and produces high-quality bike components there. These are not only functional, but also lightweight and stand out from the crowd. By manufacturing on site, the production process can be monitored at all times and exceptional quality guaranteed. And this is visible in every one of their products.
Racers and anyone who wants to go fast will love the Palka handlebars. The low rise gives you a sporty riding position and therefore always enough pressure on the front wheel. It also definitely makes your bike lighter. But that wasn't BJORN's only goal. Their focus was also on lasting durability. And this is another area where they differ from many of their competitors. They release the handlebars without weight restrictions, but why do the Slovenians have so much confidence in their Palka? During the production process, the individual carbon layers are not only laid, but formed and pressed in a special process under a pressure of 50 bar. This prevents porosity and cracking from the outset. This type of lamination ensures that you are safe even in difficult passages.
In order to save weight despite the high stability, the amount of material used was calculated precisely. For example, the clamping sections for the stem or levers have been reinforced in a defined manner, while carbon layers can be dispensed with in less stressed areas.
This also gives it a certain degree of flexibility and can soften impacts from the ground. In addition, the 8.5° backsweep ensures a relaxed hand position and also increases comfort.
