Stridsland Bullship Handlebar

Stoke is HIGH, and so is the Bullship bar!!! More than a handful of prototypes later, with incremental geometry tweaks and a few bent samples, I’m pleased to say this enormous handlebar is finally ready. This is the very first batch!

The iconic illuminati-esque one-piece design pioneered by Tom Ritchey in the late ’70s, called the Bullmoose handlebar, has a deep history rooted in the early days of mountain biking. As a result of too many slipped bars in weak stem clamps (once even costing Tom a win at the Repack race, so they say), it was designed as a strong and simple cockpit for some of the first dedicated mountain bikes.

I present to you the STRIDSLAND Bullship bar, yet another modern take on a classic design <3 With a respectably average 25° backsweep, significant rise and width, and an astounding lack of adjustability, this bar is sure to put you in a good spot for the purest form of leisurely bicycle enjoyment.

• Ideal for getting upright and comfy on those older 26″ builds, which tend to have a rather low front end.
• Effectively eliminates any cases of severe spacer stack on your MAMIL-mobile.
• Makes for a brilliant parent-bike cockpit with its kid-friendly grip area and ample thigh clearance.

Specs:

• 850 mm wide
• 25° backsweep
• 7° upsweep
• 120 mm rise (160 mm to barends)
  
• 45° stem angle
• 1-1/8″ threadless
• 55mm stack height at clamp
• Approx. 1000 g
• 4130 Cr-Mo
• Post-weld heat treated

Available in Black or Raw. The black ones are ED coated only, which is a thin, smooth layer of black paint. The Raw bars are polished and clear powder-coated.
