Thomson leaked these photos of their prototype carbon fiber mountain and road handlebars on their facebook page today. If these bars are as good as their other products, they are bound to be great. Looks like Thomson might ENVE their competitor’s success. Thomson also has some flat titanium mountain handlebars on the way as well with unofficial photo leaks of those components surfacing on the internet yesterday. Keen eyes will also notice a prototype carbon faceplate for their X4 stem that appears to be in the works. As soon as these become available for purchase we will post them here.
- Thomson’s delayed bend will provide great stiffness and the Ti will keep them comfortable and light.
- There is more to see than just the Titanium bar. Check out the carbon faceplate on the stem!
- Looks like that little bandit might be responsible for sending out these photos.
