From everyone’s favorite bike shop in Japan comes the new NITTO x Blue Lug Jam Bar! Read on for more details on this affordable beach-cruiser-inspired flat bar…
New from the folks over at Blue Lug is the Jam Bar, a beach-cruiser-inspired flat bar offering a modest 24° of backsweep and 25° of upsweep! With a 720mm width, 72.5mm of rise, and a 25.4mm clamp diameter, it’s fair to say the NITTO x Blue Lug Jam Bar is likely reserved for the most relaxed bike in your arsenal. Made of chromoly steel, the bar is, according to Blue Lug, “stiff” and “chill.”
NITTO x Blue Lug Jam Bar
Designed by one of their mechanics, Kaneyan, the NITTO x Blue Lug Jam Bar was inspired by an old bike left in the shop in Japan. Taking design cues from an old klunker someone had left by the wayside, Kaneyan wanted a fun bar that would aid in his relaxed and care-free style of riding. With this chrome-plated, relaxed handlebar, I think we can all agree Kaneyan accomplished his design goal.
At $50.71 USD, the NITTO x Blue Lug Jam Bar is an affordable way to zhuzh up that old 26er mountain bike you have collecting dust in the garage. For more info on the design process and story behind the bars, check out Blue Lug’s video on the Jam Bar:
