Jones Bikes Shop 2nd D2 SG 2.5 Loop Riser H-Bars Bars - Black

This item is listed as a Shop 2nd D2 item. This means it has minor cosmetic damage and potentially damage to the packaging. The item itself is in perfect working order, it will just have scuffs/scratches/marks on it that don't allow us to sell it as a brand new item. In some cases the product will just need a good wash/polish to clean it up, in other cases the cosmetic damage won't be visible if you're standing a couple of metres back from the part. We cannot provide photos of the cosmetic damage.

A great option for the rider who wants maximum handlebar height!

This H-Bar is essentially an SG Loop H-Bar with 2.5" of rise compared to the standard .5" of rise on all of the other H-Bars. Do you have a bike with a short head tube? Your back and neck want this bar! Are you wondering if it's safe to install a steerer tube extender on a steerer tube extender? Get this H-Bar and you won't need to find out!

The SG 2.5 Loop H-Bar shares the same comfortable 45 degree sweep, black or silver colours options, 660mm or 710mm widths, 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!

The SG 2.5 Aluminium Loop H-Bar weighs approximately 25 grams more than the SG Aluminium Loop H-Bar, so it's actually a very light-weight way to get a much higher stack, especially when compared to a steerer tube extender or even a longer steerer tube and extra spacers.

Testing

The SG 2.5 Aluminium Loop H-Bars pass the same stringent EN Mountain Bike Standards as all of our other H-Bars.

All 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.

The Loop H-Bar has the same hand, stem and brake lever position as the original H-Bar but the crossbar sweeps forward to allow the levers to go behind the crossbar 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.

Great for; Singlespeeds, 29ers, Fat Bikes, Touring, Bike-packing Adventures, City Riding and more!
Compatible with; Singlespeeds, Trigger shifters, Gripshift, Shimano twist shifters, Rohloff and above the bar hinged thumb-shifters.
