JAM-BAR.
I was surprised how fast they flew off the shelves at the first time.
Today, I’m here to announce the second round for the bar for those who wonder if it really exists.
Oh, it looks eccentric…
We’ve just restocked them.
If you haven’t known anything about this bar, please check the story of this bar.
I’ve believed that this kind of the handlebar will definitely be so cool and we just made it.
I’m so surprised how it is well received.
It might be quite different from the usual “cool”, but I believe there’s something like niche “cool” and I’m really happy that there’re many of people whom I can share it with.
The other day, the people from NITTO visited us and told me like “it’s miraculous bar!”.
It’s the only cr-mo bar with high rise which has passed their strict quality control examination.
And I did my own examination.
Does it really work for trail riding? I didn’t want it just looks cool and I merely wanted to see it in the mountain.
I went to the downhill course.
I’ve got a great lesson. For this kind of ride, modern MTB bar is better than Jam-bar.
But if you really wanna try it, I do recommend to put on gloves and install flanged LOCK-ON grips.
If not, your thumbs will bleed.
On the other day, we were at “SMILE BIKE PARK” in Inagi, Tokyo.
This is the place where Jackie from Kamiuma store gets wings on his back.
It’s really close from the downtown and not so huge, but really fun course.
I was really into pump track.
It’s one of the riding style that allows you move along the uneven oval course without pedaling.
I was really happy when I made it.
(They’re the pump track experts. It’s astonishing.)
And then, let’s go back to the Jam-bar. Does it work for the pump track?
I wanted to try it if it works for this kind of way except off-road.
It actually works.
This is not specialized in it, but you can enjoy the pump track with it.
In addition to the pump track, I tried it for the jump and slalom sections and checked if it works for them too.
I was really relieved that I can make it looks old-school, but works great for this kind of technical riding.
And here’re some good examples from the first round.
We thankfully have a customer who chooses this bar for Rivendell bike.
I can’t believe it’s the exactly the same bar. It looks even more elegant.
It’s also great to install it onto your everyday bikes.
And for this kind of bike,
Sometimes it’s great for this kind of bike.
I hope this would be the trigger of the new wave of a handlebar.
At BLUE LUG stores, released at November 29th (Fri.) 12:00,
On our Online Stores, released at December 1st (Sun.) 19:00.
This is the handlebar which make you laugh when you see it in person.
I hope you’ll have a fun ride with it.
See you soon!
