GEMINI Pröpus XC stem/handlebar unit 12K carbon matt | 740 mm
Ultralight stem/handlebar unit made in Spain
The developers at GEMINI have always been surrounded by bicycles from an early age and now apply the knowledge they have acquired in the manufacture of composite materials, resulting from years of experience in the design of motorcycles, bicycles and components, to a high degree of perfection.
The result is a stem/handlebar unit with a unibody design that cannot be compared with any conventional handlebar. The ultra-light PRÖPUS was specially designed for cross-country riders for whom low weight, the best possible climbing characteristics, high stiffness values and maximum integration and control on technical descents are paramount.
During development, every area of the handlebars was examined and optimized to the highest level. Compared to conventional stem/handlebar combos, greater damping of vertical impacts and vibrations has been achieved, resulting in less arm and hand fatigue and enabling higher speeds on descents.
On the other hand, the unibody design generates a high increase in horizontal stiffness, which makes the steering much more direct and responsive.
The PRÖPUS is made of the best carbon fiber currently available on the market - Mitsubishi MR70 - which has been specially developed for the most demanding customers in the aerospace industry and is the key to greater comfort and safety. Countless tests in the laboratory and off-road confirm the perfect symbiosis of design and material, which offers optimum conditions for racing.
