Easton EC70 AX Carbon Drop Handlebar - 31.8mm | 44cm

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.
