The Crank Bros Cobalt 11 is a straight up, lightweight, low rise handlebar designed for XC racing and some all mountain riding. Stiff, light and perfectly sized at 160 grams, this bar delivers it all for a low rise option.

The unidirectional carbon construction make the bar plenty tough and durable for daily use. The geometry and bends/shape of the bar are basically industry standard for an XC bar: 4° upsweep, 6° backsweep with your choice of 15mm mid-rise or 8mm low rise. Clamp diameter is 31.8mm and features a texture area for the stem to grip onto for zero slippage. If you though the brain trust at Crank Bros were only good at producing pedals, think again. The brilliant, low profile graphics are a big bonus and help make this bar a winner in all its understated glory.
