KONNICHIWA everybody! My name is Duncan. I am a mechanic of Blue Lug.

Blue Lug original, the For shred bar is a great handlebar not only for a fixed gear bike, but also for MTB.

The handlebar is strong enough for MTB and as it’s made by Nitto, it is precise.

I work in Blue Lug Kamiuma, where many MTB riders visited. Many of them were looking for the For shred bars recently.

Today, our customer brought his Retrotec MTB built in Napa, California.

The owner used the Fairweather b903 Bullmoose bar, but he asked to change the For shred bar for shredding the mountain.

There are 2 sizes available and he chose the wider one, 750mm. However 750mm was a bit too wide for him so I cut 10mm both sides.

Marked cutting lines are very helpful when you cut.

Done!

The Bullmoose bar was stylish but the For shred bar looks more aggressive.

Seems like the owner went to MTBing the next day already.

If you change a little bit of angle of the handlebar, it will make the feeling a lot of difference.

I personally like the 45° angle like Nitto logo on the handlebar upwards.

I hope as many as international cyclists enjoy this Nitto / Blue Lug handlebar.

Arigato!
