Overview
What Makes the Easton EC70 AX the Right Gravel Handlebar?
The Easton EC70 AX Carbon Drop Handlebar is purpose-built for riders who want road-bar speed with the control that rough terrain demands. Constructed from EC70 carbon fiber, it delivers a stiff, lightweight platform that absorbs road chatter without sacrificing power transfer on long days in the saddle. The defining feature is the 16-degree drop flare, which widens your hand position in the drops for dramatically improved stability on loose surfaces, technical descents, and extended gravel grinds. The unique top section geometry keeps you comfortable in the hoods while opening up that wider, more confident stance exactly when you need it most.
At 44cm width with a 31.8mm clamp diameter, the EC70 AX fits a wide range of gravel and adventure cockpits and pairs seamlessly with any standard 31.8mm stem. The ergonomic drop shape shortens effective reach compared to traditional road bars, reducing fatigue on long efforts and multi-day rides. Whether you are lining up at a gravel event, loading up for a bikepacking trip, or just chasing dirt roads on a Saturday, the EC70 AX gives you the confidence to push harder on terrain that would rattle lesser bars apart.

FAQ
Good questions
Get to know Easton
There's more to Easton than this one product. Our Easton page has the full Easton lineup we carry and more about the brand.
Visit the Easton page →What does 16 degrees of flare mean for gravel riding?
Flare widens your hand position in the drops relative to the tops, giving you a wider, more stable grip on rough terrain. The EC70 AX 16-degree flare balances a road-friendly hood stance with a gravel-ready drop position.
Is the EC70 AX compatible with electronic shifting systems?
Yes. The 31.8mm clamp diameter and standard drop bar profile work with all major electronic and mechanical road and gravel groupsets, including setups that route cables internally.
How does carbon construction benefit a gravel handlebar?
Carbon absorbs high-frequency vibration that would travel straight through aluminum to your hands and wrists. On long gravel days, that damping adds up to noticeably less fatigue and better control on the bars.
