Leatt Handlebar Kit Launch Control 31.8 6.0

Leatt Handlebar Kit Launch Control 31.8 6.0

The Leatt Launch Control 6.0 31.8mm Handlebar Kit is a high-performance MTB cockpit upgrade designed for riders who want the strength and control of a premium aluminium handlebar with added compliance to take the edge off rough terrain. The 31.8mm clamp diameter is designed to provide more controlled flex than larger-diameter bars, helping reduce vibration and hand fatigue without compromising the steering precision required for aggressive trail riding.

The handlebar is constructed from 7050-series aluminium with carefully engineered wall thicknesses to balance strength, weight and controlled flex. At 800mm wide, it provides plenty of leverage and stability on technical terrain, while the 9° backsweep and 5° upsweep are designed to create a comfortable and natural position for your wrists and arms.

The kit includes Leatt ReaFlex 6.0 grips, which use energy-absorbing material to help reduce high-frequency trail vibrations reaching your hands. This combination makes the Launch Control 6.0 particularly appealing for riders who regularly ride rough trails, enduro, all-mountain and gravity-focused terrain where prolonged impacts can lead to hand discomfort and arm pump.

Two rise options are available — 23mm Mid Rise and 38mm Hi Rise — allowing riders to fine-tune their handlebar height and front-end position. The generous 100mm clamping zone provides plenty of room around the stem area, while integrated alignment and cut marks make setup and trimming the bar straightforward.
