Machining shaves unnecessary weight to specifically engineer it for trail and all-mountain riding. Opposing bolts on the steer tube clamp give extreme clamping power while reducing stress on the steer tube. Talo is a sturdy CNC machined aluminium performance mountain bike stem with four bolt clamp to hold your bar firmly in place. And a long central cut-out in the middle of the Zone relieves pressure on the perineum, allowing you to ride for longer. High density foam stays comfortable for longer, adding to the saddle’s supportive platform. This base is connected to the chromoly rails using a patented suspension system that reduces road buzz and improves comfort without compromising on support. We’ve chosen a nylon fibre saddle base to provide a stiff and stable pedalling platform for a low overall weight. The nose width allows you to move forward over the pedals on climbs and sprints, and a tapered back enables you to get behind the saddle easily for switchback descents or technical off-road sections. We’ve selected a flat saddle profile that’s long enough to allow for lots of micro-adjustments to your riding position over the course of a full day on the bike. The Zone is designed for maximum pedalling efficiency and comfort on longer rides, whether on road or off it. Take your bikepacking into the mountains Confucius is a bar that gives you more control than a tradional swept back bar on technical terrain. Simply attach your Garmin, 3000 lumen torches or mascots to the hoop and they will still be well within reach, maybe at an even better viewing angle and sit above your handle bar luggage. Got gadgets? Confucius loves gadgets, and with the out-front hoop you can free up the bar around the stem. Strength is not compromised as the main load bearing section of the bar is a single piece. Keep them horizontal, or twist them up slightly to give yourself a streamlined TT style riding position to help you battle across a windblown Tierra del Fuego. ![]() ![]() The bars have a slight riser but feel free to experiment and rotate them to your suiting. The bars also have a slight 'back sweep' so you can sit more upright in the saddle If you do want to move your hands a bit a reduce the fatigue of a long ride, the hoop extends out front giving a choice of further hand positions. You won't have to adapt to a new hand position so you are not going to lose any control off-road and you can still get out of your saddle and power up the hills like a hero. We have taken our Aspect risers and evolved them in to a bar designed primarily for bikepacking. Confucius says that you don't have to sacrifice what you love about your traditional riser bars just to get the flexibility of a hooped bar. ![]()
