SCOTT AT-2 BAR

The AT-2 is a combination bar with short Ski-type bar extensions. Two pieces of 6063-T832 straight gauge, aluminum alloy tubing are used to make the AT-2. Both pieces have an outer diameter of 22mm, and a wall thickness of approximately 1.51mm. The longer of the two pieces is bent to form the handlebar, the other becomes a shim or "collar" to build the diameter at the center out to the needed 25.4mm standard for mountain bars. The collar piece, which is 60mm (2 3/8") long, is cut once lengthwise and slid down the length of handlebar to the center of the tube before it is bent. The AT-2 has a slight rearward bend starting at 1 3/8" from the collar end on both sides. Each side of the handlebar bends forward then inward toward the front tire. A second bend in the bar extension, curves the tubing up slightly, leaving a Ski-bend styled extension with 6 1/2" of grip area. The inner diameter of the tubing at the end is 18.8mm. Included are two of the Rodon Black plastic press-in end plugs we wrote about in the bar extension section. The AT-2 comes in three widths, 21", 22" or 23" and appears to be wet painted in a metallic Grey. The weight of a 21" AT-2, with its end plugs, is 288 grams.
