BICYCLE HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY

摘要

A bicycle handlebar assembly having a stem portion constructed to engage a stem tube that is rotationally supported by a frame and a handlebar that is co-molded to the stem portion. Preferably, the stem portion and the handlebar are constructed to dissimilar materials. More preferably, the stem portion is constructed to a metal-type material and the handlebar is constructed of a carbon-fiber material. The stem portion and the handlebar are constructed such that the handlebar engages the stem portion and is secured thereto during formation of the handlebar assembly by co-molding. Such a construction provides a bicycle handlebar assembly that is lightweight, robust, and can be efficiently produced.
