The Contour is ProTaper’s most popular handlebar. Oversized diameter handlebars, without crossbars, were invented and patented by ProTaper in 1991. This design allows the handlebar to flex more and absorb impacts better than conventional bars, offering the rider more comfort and less fatigue without sacrificing bar strength.

The SE (Seven Eighths) Handlebar is ProTaper’s ⅞" diameter bar designed for riders who still prefer the feel and stability of a crossbar.
