Eats vibrations.
The Lauf Smoothie dropbar is designed to eat vibrations. The perfect match for gravel and rough pavement. The Smoothie gives you increased comfort wherever you choose to place your hands, with most comfort in the most common hand positions - in the hoods or the drops. Tuck in and just ride!
Features
The Lauf Smoothie might look standard, but don’t let that fool you. It raises the bar for bar comfort. It doesn’t pretend to be something it isn’t. On the contrary, without any smoke or mirrors it truly gives you increased comfort. The suspension of the Smoothie provides approximately double the compliance of competing “normal” carbon handlebars. Aluminum bars being significantly harsher than said “normal” carbon bars.
Smooth Zone
The Lauf Smoothie handlebar eats vibrations for breakfast, isolating you from the hum of the road. Flex where you need it the most, in the hoods and the drops. Utilising the same tough and flexible S2 glass fibers we us in the springs.
Flared Drops
Being in control and being comfortable is so important. Flared drops give you both. Control in gnarly descents and more position on the long haul. As a bonus you're sooo aero when rocking the drops.
Snug Multiposition Corners
Have you ever held something that just seems to be made for your hand? Lik'a glove. The snug corner does exactly that - fits in your palm. This gives you even more positions and a place to rest your hands when you're tired of being aero for hours in the drops.
Backswept Top
Laid back, swept back. Backswept goodness for those steep climbs. Just pull those bars and yourself to the top.
