{"product_id":"jones-h-bar-sg-25-loop-alloy","title":"Jones H-Bar SG 2.5 Loop Alloy","description":"\u003cp\u003eJeff hears from a lot of riders who need to get their bars higher, and while his framesets make that easy, many riders are installing H-Bars on other brands of bikes with a normal, lower stack height in order to get more comfort and control.  For them, and everyone else who wants to get their bars higher, we have the new SG 2.5 Aluminum Loop H-Bar!  Think of the 2.5 as an alternative to a 2\" stack of headset spacers combined with a standard H-Bar, which has .5\" of rise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso a great bar for a Jones Bike for the rider who wants maximum handlebar height!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis H-Bar is essentially an SG Aluminum Loop H-Bar, with 2.5\" of rise compared to the standard .5\" of rise on all of the other H-Bars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SG 2.5 Loop H-Bar shares the same comfortable 45 degree sweep, black colour option, 710mm width, 31.8mm clamp diameter, and standard 22.2mm grip area diameter for flat bar\/mountain bike controls with the rest of the Aluminum H-Bars.  The main differences that you'll notice when riding the SG 2.5 vs the standard SG Aluminum Loop H-Bar is that the 2.5 is 2 inches higher - which makes it ideal for bikes with front ends that are too low - and that the rear crossbar swoops down to the stem, rather than curving mostly back as on the rest of the H-Bars.  We hope that this newest H-Bar will help more riders get more comfortable on their bikes!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Jones H-Bars use a 31.8mm stem clamp diameter, 22.2mm clamp size for controls (standard mountain bike style).  The entire front loop has a 22.2mm diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Loop H-Bar has the same hand, stem and brake lever position as the original H-Bar but the cross bar sweeps forward to allow the levers to go behind the cross bar instead of in front. This gives longer uninterrupted hand positions and will allow trigger and grip\/twist shifters to fit on the rearward extensions (unlike the original H-Bar and the Cut H-Bar). The continuous front loop of the bar enhances stiffness and is good for additional aero hand positions and mounting lights, GPS devices etc. This bar provides comfort and power with an impressive weight. With the levers in the optimum position the rider is superbly placed for fast riding while still enjoying all the hand positions available. The rearward extensions allow extra leverage and a wider hand position - be it for comfort or power. All H-bars are for a 31.8 stem. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e710mm width\u003cbr\u003e690 grams\u003cbr\u003e2.5\" rise\u003cbr\u003eStraight gauge loop, tapered and butted main cross bar\u003cbr\u003eBlack Loop H-Bars are bead-blasted and then black anodized for a slightly matte, lightly-textured black finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca class=\"button\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jonesbikes.com\/content\/Jones_H-Bar_GUIDE_web_v2.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRefer to the H-Bar Manual for set-up tips!\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe highly recommend checking out our selection of longer grips and bar tape specifically designed for the 710mm H-Bars.  Using longer grips is KEY to getting the full range of positions, and therefore comfort, that the H-Bars are capable of delivering!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreat for; Singlespeeds, 29ers, Fat Bikes, Touring, Bike-packing Adventures, City Riding and more!\u003cbr\u003eCompatible with; Singlespeeds, Trigger shifters, Gripshift, Shimano twist shifters, Rohloff and above the bar hinged thumb-shifters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/whatbars.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWhat Bars\u003c\/a\u003e is a very useful website that will help you visualise different forward and backwsweeps, allowing you to compare an ever increasing number of different handlebars as an overlay.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48646900187328,"sku":"JHBSG25B710","price":209.9,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0791\/1071\/files\/E584F192-1CD6-437A-A8BFA3559249CE6C-2000w.webp?v=1785188672","url":"https:\/\/www.bicyclejunction.co.nz\/products\/jones-h-bar-sg-25-loop-alloy","provider":"Bicycle Junction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
