More bikepacking, less pain.
Fred Bar
Fred Bar
Do your hands get numb after hours or days of off-road riding?
Many bikepackers are using aero bars to give their hands and wrists a break during flat stretches of gravel riding. But aero bars weren’t designed for off-road cycling …
The Fred Bar helps bikepackers mount aero bars in a more comfortable position. Attach the Fred Bar to the steerer tube, just above your bike stem. Then, clip your aero bars onto the Fred Bar instead of your handlebar.
The Fred Bar lifts your aero bars up vertically and brings them closer to your torso, resulting in a much more natural riding posture.
It’s not about being aero. It’s about being comfortable.

What are bikepackers saying about the Fred Bar?
-
Comfort
— Dirty Teeth MTB"For bikepacking, I find it necessary to raise my aero bars up off the handlebar and that's where the Fred Bar comes in. It gets me into a more relaxed, crouched position, which puts less strain on the back, and opens up your chest so you can breath a little easier. And its just more comfy in general."

Convenience
— cyclingabout.com"A steerer mounting kit like the Fred Bar puts your aero bars directly above your stem, reducing your aero bar-to-saddle distance … A side benefit to the Fred Bar is that you can quickly add or remove your aero bars from your bike by simply removing your stem top cap."
