Box Hex lab oversized titanium

All Box handlebars are designed and manufactured using their Oversized technology. The handlebars have a dual function as they contribute to both steering and pedaling stiffness. By strategically varying wall thicknesses and tube diameters, Box moved material from three low-stress areas to high-load areas. This greatly reduced twist and helped with responsiveness. At the same time, Box has increased pedaling rigidity by providing a stop to the "lift" phenomenon. There's no point pushing hard on the pedals if you can't pull on the handlebars and transmit that power. Power can easily be lost due to handlebar deflection, and the consequences can lead to poor power transmission and steering control. When combined with Box's other oversized components, the user will experience increased responsiveness and reduced latency.

Key Differences: This particular model of handlebar is designed for the taller rider. Titanium allows Box to explore the structural rigidity of steel, but without compromising on weight. It's as exotic a solution as carbon fiber, but gives a slightly different result for the discerning rider. The carbon will contribute to a more aggressive steering response, while the titanium will feel very responsive but more refined.
