Building off of our CFT platform in 2013, we constructed the PODIUM bar from a hi tensile strength alloy for more durability. Although you give up some comfort in the flex of the material, it is more than made up for with the added strength CFT - Controlled Flex Technology Handlebar. Utilizes an elastomer shock system in the center of the cross bar, the CFT eliminates harsh vibrations and chatter caused by flex in non braced handlebars. By using a hi flex alloy, the CFT allows for the comfort desired in a brace less handlebar while at the same time slowing down the rate of flex that cause the vibrations and chatter.Features: Utilizing our Patent Pending Controlled Flex Technology, the CFT crossbar allows the handlebar to naturally flex at a controlled rate. The results provide reduced vibration and rider fatigue.
