FIRST LOOK: ONEUP CARBON E-BAR
An eMTB handlebar with all the right moves
Mountain bike component manufacturer OneUp brings its comfort-enhancing oval-shaped handlebar technology to electric bikes with its all-new Carbon E-bar. According to OneUp, this eMTB-specific handlebar is 20% more compliant than other carbon bars on the market because of its oval shaping. The shape also adds steering stiffness and responsiveness – something that never hurts while throwing around a heavier ebike.
Integrated wire ports for Shimano STEPS electric bike controls and displays or any remote with a connector diameter less than 6.5mm clean the cockpit and it passes the Zedler E-MTB Advanced Plus and international DH standard (ASTM Cat. 5 Downhill). Despite its strength, OneUp claims that it is the most compliant eMTB-rated bar on the market. The 35mm diameter bar weighs a claimed 238 grams, has 8° of backsweep, 5° of upsweep, and is 800mm wide but can be trimmed down to as little as 740mm. Its retail price is $149.50 and decal kits will be offered in Red, Green, Blue, Orange, Gold, Matte Bronze, Black, Purple, Oil Slick & White for that custom look.

OneUp Announces The Carbon E-Bar: The Most Compliant E-Bike Rated Bar On the Market
More Compliance. Less Fatigue.
E-Bikes let you ride further for longer. But they’re also heavier and more physically demanding to ride. That makes reducing fatigue even more important. Our Carbon E-Bar is 20% more compliant than any other DH rated handlebar on the market. That means more comfort and less fatigue.
Engineered for good vibes.
The Most Compliant E-Bike Rated Bar On the Market
Our patented design narrows to just 20mm to maximize vertical compliance. For reference, the thinnest portion of a traditional handlebar is 22.2mm. Our oval design delivers a more comfortable ride without sacrificing steering response or strength. The E-Bar passes the stringent Zedler E-MTB Advanced Plus standard and the international DH standard (ASTM Cat. 5 Downhill).

Stealth Routing
Our Carbon E-Bar stealth routing is compatible with Shimano STEPS and any remote with a connector diameter less than 6.5mm.
Compatibility
The OneUp E-Bar features internal routing for Shimano STEPS switch units and all other switch units with a connector diameter of less than 6.5mm.
The wire port diameter in the bar is 6.5mm and the minimum switch wire length required to internally route is 650mm.
Specialized, Bosch or Rocky Mountain remote power mode controllers cannot be internally routed through the Carbon E-Bar.
If you have a switch with a removable wire (EP8 or E8000) you can install a 650mm or longer Shimano EW-SD50 wire.
The Orbea Rise does not have a handlebar mounted display unit as it connects to your smartphone. It has the EW-EN100 junction and removable EW-SD50 wire.
If you don’t have a removable wire on your switch, you need to buy a new switch with a removable wire (SW-E7000-L) with a wire length of at least 700mm.
Or you you can add the EW-JC200 2 port junction and an EW-SD50 extension wire
Grips with only an outer clamp are not compatible with our bar.
