The Tumbleweed Persuader bar is a modern wide mountain bike handlebar available in two wrist friendly sweep options and two width options.

 

The Persuader is our award winning mountain touring handlebar design based on many years and thousands of miles of loaded off-road touring experience, a bar focused on comfort, utility and control. The current version of the Persuader bar is made of heat treated 7000 series aluminum alloy in a shot peened black finish. It features a 50mm rise (Center of clamp to end of the bar) and two super comfy options for back sweep angle, a trail oriented 20 degree version and more of a touring oriented version at 30 degrees. 

The Persuader was designed with a few ideas in mind - First, we wanted a bar that has a wide straight section next to the stem for mounting bags, so there is no forward sweep. Next, we wanted to maximize real estate in the grip area so that you could use a variety of grip/brake lever/shifter options and leave plenty of room to trim to your desired width. The narrowest we’ve trimmed them to is 760mm, but there was still plenty of room left to go narrower. To get both a wide front section and a long grip section, we paid extra to have custom tooling made to get the bend radius in the bar as tight and compact as possible. ISO Mountain tested.  

Alloy Persuader Specs:

  • Width: 800 and 840mm
  • Weight (30 degree sweep): 800mm: 411 grams, 840mm: 424 grams
  • Weight (20 degree sweep): 800mm: 390 grams, 840mm: 400 grams
  • Sweep Angle: 20 or 30 degrees
  • Rise: 50mm (center of clamp to center of bar end)
  • Upsweep: 4 degrees
  • Material: 7000 series heat treated aluminum
  • Clamp diameter: 31.8mm, with 200mm of clamp area across the center of the bar

The difference in the two widths of the bars is only in the grip area, and the bar can be trimmed to suit rider preferences.
