The Gemini Series handlebars are designed to be the ultimate cross-over handlebar that balance hard enduro with cross-country riding applications. The Gemini Series feature Astra’s posture-centric design criteria and compliment various riding scenarios.
The Gemini Series handlebars are available with a 27 mm rise and a 38 mm rise and are used by legendary riders including the likes of Graham Jarvis and Alfredo Gomez.
The Gemini Series handlebars are fabricated from high quality 7050 aluminum 4mm tubing to strike the perfect balance between strength and flex. The taper is designed to improve flex, maximize space for controls, and provide easier access to the bike’s suspension.
The Gemini Series handlebars feature a unique grip position that promotes widened elbows and neutral wrist alignment, keeping you in your attack position and reducing hand pain and arm pump.
