Description
Easton's new AX series line of bars meets the needs of the growing drop bar adventure and gravel segment. Building off the highly successful and critically acclaimed line of new EC70 AX bar utilizes a proven top shape and reach as well as ergonomic drop shape, but turns up the drop flare from 4 degrees all the way up to 16 degrees. The wider stance in the drops provides more control on rough terrain and long gravel assaults. Why 16-degrees? Based on extensive testing and rider feedback we determined that 16 degrees was the perfect balance of maximum bar flare that still allowed for efficient access and usage of the shifters and brakes in both the hoods and drops.
The Easton EC70 AX Carbon Handlebar is available in 4 widths: 40, 42, 44, and 46cm (center-to-center).

Reviews
The carbon bars definitely add comfort and dampen the little bumps in the road (gravel) over alloy. I also like the clean tops for hand placement and mounting accessories. And for me the flare is just right.
The bar design is excellent; it has a comfortable grip on both the hoods and drops. Road vibration is absorbed by the carbon fiber, and the bars flex to soakup bigger bumps. I've been riding these on gravel road for about three months and love 'em.
