That's a lovely solution, because it looks like you can take the handlebar off for travel, say in an EVOC bag.

Do you know if the ARC8 stem can be bought anywhere?

From Spain, you could contact: https://www.megamo.com/
From Switzerland, you could contact: https://www.arc8bicycles.com/
Solution was developed by: https://www.bicycle.engineering/

The stem is compatible with front fork cable routing: ICH, Token Cable Box and ACR but ACR is a bit wider, so it won´t look so nice.

I am just looking for an integrated handlebar, because its look is nicer but this solution is a very good one.  I don´t like the look of the clamps and the limitation of handlebar shape due to the clamp (most aero flat bars are incompatible with this solution due the clamps).

What a deception with Lightcarbon. Its handlebar quality is poor from my point of view and also it weights more than expected. A handlebar with an expected weight of 365+10, weights 440 grams!!! Not a good option.

Have you seen VeloBuild have released a separate Bar/Stem combo that works with all their frames? It was only released in the last 2 days and is on their site here:

I'd be curious to know if they'd sell the headset/spacer/stem without the bars. There's a market for that, with and without the bars.

The justification from Lightcarbon about the increased weight is that they didn´t update the website and now they have increased the weight because the lightweight version doesn´t pass the test.

Amazing these guys!

Hi guys,

I've got the VeloBuild HB011 bar (http://www.velobuild.com/products/carbon-fiber-road-bike-integrated-handlebar-with-spacers-for-hidden-cables-routing-300) and am looking at getting the OG Evkin CM005S computer mount (https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005002400491495.html?spm=a2g0o.store_pc_groupList.8148356.6.45fcccbey2vOGK)

Can anyone recommend if this should work out of the box or if any other parts (maybe spacers?) will be needed for the bar and computer mount to play nicely?

If anyone has other CM recommendations please feel free to drop them in here  :)

**EDIT** If anyone is interested, my 90/400 HB011 weighs in at 304g, and measures 390mm at the hoods and 400mm at the drops

Wow, nice handlebar! Really only 304? I would like to know more about the complete geometry of the handlebar. I think I will ask for more details to velobuild.

Yeah, gonna need spacers for sure, and I don't even see the bolts needed to mount it to the bars on the package list. I'm sure it has to come with both or it's unusable out of the box. Can you contact the vendor to ask?

I would say that spacers are included for sure, what is not included is the mount. It depends on how the handlebar is, many of them could be installed out of the box without spacers, using normal round spacers (all of them at the end... ) but with a not nice looking.

Chris told me tha Velobuild HB011 handlebar weights in 110-420 375 grams.

Not bad but not superlight.

Yeah I'm going to send them a message and see what they say.

I've also seen this one which looks quite nice: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001055265607.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.6ba179b7s8ecuY&algo_pvid=fee5b3d6-97dc-4467-b05a-412b360cbd19&algo_exp_id=fee5b3d6-97dc-4467-b05a-412b360cbd19-0&pdp_ext_f=%7B%22sku_id%22%3A%2210000013844465525%22%7D

Has anyone found other stem options? The frame I'm looking at uses 1.5 to 1.5 ACR headset and I would like to use the Carbonda CGB01 handlebar fully integrated. It will be built with AXS so just needs to carry the brake lines.

I am also looking for a solution. I would love an integrated bar, but I am open to a bar/stem. My issue is, I need a size 36 or 38 measured center to center.
