ProTaper – ProTaper Contour Handlebars - Reed Bend, including Contour Henry/Reed handlebars in Red, Platinum Gray, Orange, Jet Black, Gold and Blue, the Henry/Reed bend has been a paddock favorite for years because it sits right in the middle of the range. It is not as low as a Carmichael shape or as tall as a High bend, giving a moderate rise with a comfortable sweep that suits riders who split their time between sitting and standing, and who want one bar that works on a rough outdoor track and a hardpack local circuit alike. As part of the ProTaper Contour family it is a tapered 1-1/8 in. bar with no crossbar, using a thick clamping section for rigidity and consistent steering feel plus tapered ends that flex under impact to protect the hands and wrists. Riders stepping off a stock bar usually notice two things immediately: hits feel duller, and the bar stays straight after a get-off that would have folded the original. With Red, Blue, Orange, Gold, Platinum Gray and Jet Black available, matching a Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki or KTM color scheme is easy. Add matching bar mount cones to fine-tune the height.
