Lyne AMP 35 Carbon Riser Bar
What Is It?
The Lyne AMP 35 Carbon Riser Bar is a high-end mountain bike handlebar made from carbon fibre, designed for trail, XC, and aggressive riding setups that want a balance of low weight, stiffness, and vibration damping.
It uses the modern 35mm clamp standard, paired with a wide 800mm MTB geometry for maximum control.

- 800mm width for stability and control on trails
- 5° upsweep + 9° backsweep for wrist comfort

Bottom Line
