The city handlebar that survives every kerb. The 321 is for anyone who prefers a very upright sitting position on a city bike. The 35° bend to the rear ensures an absolutely natural arm position on the bike. The sensitive shoulder and neck area is relieved by the 20° Downsweep, which brings the elbows down and thus ensures a natural posture.

Safety and quality
The quality and durability are the highest, because SQlab has gone beyond the goal: All Comfort handlebars are manufactured to MTB standards and have passed the most demanding downhill test protocol of the German Zedler Institute.
Handlebar ergonomics
As the rise grows, so does the Backsweep and Downsweep. This always results in the optimal, ergonomic wrist position and maximum relaxation for neck and shoulders when a more upright sitting position is desired.
Rise: or the handlebar height allows an individual adjustment of the sitting position.
Backsweep: ensures a straight transition from the forearm to the hand and reduces numbness in the fingers.
Downsweep: provides a natural posture of the elbows, which relaxes the neck and shoulder muscles.
The maximum system weight - bike, rider and luggage - is 180kg

Cause - Handlebar without downsweep
can lead to tension in the shoulder and neck muscles.
In a upright riding position on a trekking or city bike, it is important to relax the shoulder and neck muscles to prevent discomfort. This is due to the fact that if a handlebar has too little downward bend (downsweep), it forces the hands to rotate inward, which results in the elbows moving outward and the shoulders being pulled toward the head. This unnatural posture can cause the shoulder and neck muscles to become very tense and painful.
To avoid these problems and relax the muscle chain, the goal should be to get the "shoulders away from the ears." A handlebar with more "downsweep" can help achieve this. The "downsweep" in combination with the "backsweep" (bending backwards) provides a natural hand position and an elbow position close to the body. This natural posture lowers the shoulders and the muscles in the neck get better blood circulation and relax due to a looser position.
