Touted as the most compliant e-Bike rated handlebar on the market, OneUp Components new Carbon E-Bar is features some patented technology, neat integration, and for a limited time, has an exclusive Loam Wolf discount code! Use TLW20 at oneupcomponents.com.
Now, if you’ve made it this far you’ll be happy to learn that just because these carbon handlebars are eBike rated, that doesn’t mean they won’t work just fine on your mountain bike. In fact, while creating this feature and interviewing the folks over at OneUp, we found out that Yeti / OneUp Components own EWS racer Richie Rude, chooses to run these bars on his race bike as he prefers the comfort and reduction in hand fatigue as it lets him push harder, longer.
Starting out with the patented oval shape, the OneUp Component Carbon E-Bar has a distinct look that is different than traditional round bars. That tube profile is what gives the bar an incredible amount of vertical compliance but also keeps the bar feeling very precise and stiff front to back. If you think about a circular tube, it will flex 360 degrees. Any direction impact or energy is moving, a circle will move, the flattened profile will reduce the amount these bars from can move fore and aft, meaning you get the flex you want, and lose the vagueness where you don’t want it.
OneUp Components claims the Carbon E-Bar is 20% more vertically compliant than their competitors carbon bars, 5% more compliant than their own handlebars, and offers a 28% increase to the fore and aft stiffness.
Most bars have a 22mm diameter here around the bend. OneUp’s Carbon E-Bar tapers down to just 20mm, which gives it a pretty flat look compared to traditional bars.
WHY CALL IT AN E-BIKE BAR THEN?
Sure, it can and will be run by lots of discerning riders on non e-Bikes but in order for components to get an E-Rated certification, extra safety and durability standards have to be met. It costs more money for brands to get it, but it gives piece of mind to consumers knowing the products will last. The bars are also ASTM Cat 5 DH certified, just in case the stringent E-Bike rating wasn’t enough for you.
Along with the certifications, the OneUp Carbon E-Bar is designed to reduce visible clutter and wires running around the front of your bike. A hole in the center of the bar rests between the stem’s faceplate (which means you’ll need an open stem, OneUp has those too) and there are also recessed slots with holes at either ends up the bars that will sit under the grips and allow exit for the wires to control power mode selection and Shimano Di2 wiring.
It's not something you have to take advantage of, as you can see our bike didn’t need it with the AXS grouppo, yet we still love the ride quality and benefits of the E-Bar.

Based on this video alone I purchased these bars for my 2018 YT Capra Aluminum 29er. The bike came with 800mm Race Face Turbine 35mm ride bars. I found my self having to run Ergon GA2 grips with palm support to take the discomfort away. I could never run traditional round grips comfortably regardless of how cushy. So installing the One Up E-Carbon bars I was blown away! I installed some Ergon GA2 round grips and was loving how comfortable the ride was. I could not believe how big of a difference these bars made. Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing and we're very glad to hear that your comfort has been improved!
I love my one up carbon bars on my Emtb. They kind of flex in a good way like your handle bars have wings
Just ordered mine. I do suffer from hand pain. I have also had both Rotator Cuffs repaired. Anything that helps I am all for. Thanks for the Discount!
Good video, I use cromag cutlass carbin bars with rev grips and that works for me .looking forward to see the long term review
I have these bars and absolutely love them. That said, they did not, for me, eliminate hand pain from late season brake bumps at a recent trip at the bike park (Angel Fire). I understand death-gripping, braking, grips, etc. all affect this but that was my experience after a few big park days with the bars. They are the best carbon bars I've tried (I disliked 35mm before them) and recommend them to everyone. *The compliance is real!
Try some PNW bars. They have a bit more backsweep, helped me a lot with palm/wrist pain.
Have this bar ordered for my Trek Fuel e 9.5, will watch for your follow up. Thanks!
We’ll be sure to update.
Great run through which originally got me hooked to try out previously. Swapped out my Renthal Fat Bar Lite for the std One Up and rode Sedona for a week on my Yeti 130 LR. Noticeable difference. My wrists were less sore and less hand numbness. Ergon Factory Evo grips on all my bikes. I picked up another standard One Up Im going to try on my Turbo Levo Expert. ( The controller cable runs external anyway so slotted bar not needed) Running a Fat Bar on that currently. I will say coming off a stiff as a brick Renthal bar, and I do love that bar, the one up took some getting used too. But my wrists are much better for it. Looking forward to seeing how the std One Up performs w/ a 50 LB e bike. I think the other one up bar cut to 780mm is gonna stay on my yeti for next months sea otter enduro stages. Curious to hear from others on running one up on their e bikes. Ride On!
Wish the coupon code had come out a month ago. I'm loving these bars!
For arm pump, try turning your brake levers up so they are closer to parallel with the ground. Basically eliminated my arm pump
Grip your bar and then extend your fingers naturally. This is where your brake lever should be.
I always did mine rotated down into the "natural" position and had issues. The new school French flat position has eliminated any pump issue. I also have girly hands.
I’m gonna try that. I got some thicker Raceface Grips and it made arm pump worse. Thanks for the tip
@@SeanKWhite-lk5zf it’s “moto style”
Thank you for the discount code. Been waiting to get these for my RiSE and that helped me over the finish line. Now I need to get a longer e-tube cable...
Awesome! Glad to hear we could help save you a few bucks thanks to the generosity of the awesome folks at OneUp!
Did you ever get your stock cable through the bars was it still short?
@@yofoo138 I had to buy a 20cm extension and connector.
they look good. doubt i would ever use the holes for ebike controls though.
They are awesome, but the smallest bars I run are 800mm by 60mm if I have 15 mm of spacers under stem.
Will look forward to the review of bar and grip combination as it relates to fatigue.
Trust us we will be testing them thoroughly.
My early stage arthritic hands love the Wolftooth mega fat paw grips. They are not very durable since they are silicone but worth it for me. I’m going to use the code and can’t wait to run these!
Thanks for sharing Andy. Genuinely hope these bars help extend the ride. Let us know after a few rides!

Thanks. I just installed these on my ‘20 Canyon Spectral ON and they’re awesome! Replaced the ENVE M7’s which were too stiff for my liking. Love the internal wire routing capability too. Thanks for the great review and discount code.
Thanks for the code :), works in Europe as well
One up is awesome. When the hell are they going to produce a carbon wheel set?! Iam sure they’ll hit out the ball park with that one 🤙🏼.
I'd be keen to see a comparison with the PNW Range bar.
My arm pump went away when I switched from fox to dvo, and got rev grips
It is to bad that one up doesn’t make some 12 & 16 degree sweep versions like SQ LABS!
Drinking game. Have a drink every time you hear the word compliance. 😜
Have fun getting wasted!
Do you know if they improved their clear coat? Got their older oval bar on my trail bike, and while I like it, the clear coat on the carbon yellowed and is peeling in some places.
Hi we’re you able to route the fuel exe remote through the bars?
besides the roles, what is the difference in the oneup for ebike and regular bike? Their website is not clear if the only difference are the roles for cables or it ebike one is more compliante.
I contemplated these, but opted for the standard OneUp bars. I've been suspicious of 35mm prior to this, but have heard good things from real people about the OneUps. I am currently using 31.8 Vibrocores on my hardtail and my roadbike, and they did help, but I still have wrist issues, (Especially after a bad road bike crash a couple of years ago.) I'm looking forward to seeing how the OneUps compare to the Vibrocore. If I like what I feel, but want more, I might move up to these e-bars.
The Vibrocore bars are also very cool! WE like them, although these might replace them on a couple of our bikes. Stand by for a possible head to head.
@@TheLoamWolf Please do a head to head with those two bars.
What size stem was on the bike?? Either I missed it on the vid or he dint say??? Thanks
Great videos. Good BS free reviews. Just ordered these for my Fuel Exe. Do you know if the cable is removable from the remote for feeding through the bar? Thanks
Hey there, I have a Fuel EXe and this bar on order too. This is what my LBS said to me. Hope this helps.
“I don't think anything needs to be routed through the bars internally for the TQ system based on the models I've seen…”
@@Chan1881 the detachable plug on the remote is too large to go through the hole in the bars anyway. FWIW I found the backsweep insufficient for me so went to the SQ labs bars.
waiting on the 25mm version.. 35 is just too high for me
So, how exactly is that measured?
Too bad the code did not work for the EU website. :) I am running their "normal" 20mm rise carbon handlebar version on 2 bikes right now and was thinking about getting another one for the hardtail. I used aluminium handlebars for a while and there is a very noticable different feeling with the carbon variant from oneup. It takes out a lot of the high frequency trail chatter that used to make my finger joints hurt pretty quickly. Paired with a couple of grips (in my case I tried out almost 10 different grips) and buttercups in the new ZEB, it really makes a lot of difference. It does not smoothen out the trail at all. As said, high frequency bumps, chatter and stuff is noticeable lighter on the hands, muscles and joints.
Hey guys awesome video. Having arm and elbow issues as well.
Tried the code not working anymore. Do u have any new promo code? Thanks
Unfortunately, the code they gave us was only active for a short period time.
@@TheLoamWolf oh okay np. Thanks
I really wish they made these compatible with the Specialized e-bike cables...
They actually are comptaible, meaning the cable will fit. You just have to cut the original cable close (about 5-10cm) to the TCU-connector and reconnect the five wires using 3M waterproof connectors after routing the cable through your bars. It's absolutely possible and from my measurements the original Speci cable is long enough.
Just be sure to have a stem that fits this bar: You need an open stem, like OneUp's own one, that doesn't block the middle hole. Unfortunately that's not the case with my stem.
In case of failing: The original Speci controller costs only around 50$/€ and can easily be replaced.
Isn't the 35mm E-bar the same thing as the regular 35mm carbon bar, just with a channel groove for cable to hide the wire?
They are very similar in appearance, but this bar does actually have more compliance than their normal bar. And yes it also has wiring accommodations.
@@TheLoamWolf damn, I just bought a Turbo Levo and I bought a 1up carbon bar, but not the ebar.
I wish they made it clearer that there was a difference. On their page it seemed like it was just the cable routing holes and channel.
I haven't even installed them yet, and maybe I can sell them.
Is there a big difference?
Is the e version really more vibration damping than the 'normal' oneup carbon bar?
Yes it is.
Real shame it’s not compatible with the Levo remote. Is that discount code just for US customers?

What is "ebike" or "e-rated certification". Did they come up with that term themselves or is it actually an organisation behind the certification process?
It is not a term they came up with. In order for parts to be spec’s on ebikes in Europe they have to pass much more stringent testing to be “e certified” due to heavier bike weights and speeds. These bars exceed those standards. In the US they are not needed but some brands choose to get tested for EU sales.
Most compliant? Pretty hard to beat Fasst Flexx. But they're heavy and pricey, even in the carbon model. I'm 70 and the 200-gram penalty for the alloy version is well worth it for the climbs in Utah (I still haven't gone the eBike route, though I plan on it). Descending miles and miles of square edged bumps in Moab is way more comfortable on these and they even help on climbing up those same square edges.
Plus the fact that I’ve seen several Fastflex bars fail in dramatic fashion at the pivot point. 😬
That’s definitely scary
@@ChefIan73 You have personally witnessed several Fasst Flexx bars fail? Under what circumstances?
@@kayakutah both times (not my own experiences kind you) under moderate to hard riding, but not under circumstances that should have caused the metal to fail. I haven’t heard of any other issues though. But that was enough for me to decide I wasn’t going to give them a try.
+1 for the Flexx bars. Pro moto guys run them, and I’ve searched everywhere for any failures and have not read any. I run them on my Yeti 160e and they’re game changers.
On uk website they are sold out an us do not ship out of us...
What repair stand is that?
It's the Kuat Tri Doc stand.
Just wondering, how does this compare to the PNW RANGE V3 aluminum 31.8 you recommended on your video 9 months ago? Thanks!
Hey Mike, Thank you so much for the amazing support! In response to your question, that bar is a 31.8 and alloy, and yes, I opted for that because I'm a huge fan of compliance and comfort... We've not yet put enough miles on the OneUps for a full review, but I think i'm liking these better. The PNW are great, but as I described in this video, they flex and move in all directions, whereas these give a bit more precise handling and fore/aft stiffness while still giving the up and down comfort i want.
We'll dig up the PNWs though and do a little head to head when we get time.
Just wondering, did I miss the long term review on these bars? I would also love to know what grips you’ve found that work best at further improving your comfort.
Is discount code still working
No it is not. But try sending OneUp an email or message saying you saw our video and maybe they'll hook you up??
35mm at the clam has nothing to do with the size at the end with grips...so you little hands wouldn't noting anything.
If your looking at these bars then you definitely don’t want 35mm bars
The code doesn’t work for me
The code has expired sorry to say.
@@TheLoamWolf thank you for your response. I reached out to them and they gave incentive for being cheap asking for a discount. Lol
Ha ha ha. Glad to hear it.
@@tabachoy54 mind sharing how much of a discount ? I may go this route also..
@@deaconnyte9748 15% off. Wait for the 4th of July sale. You might get a better deal
777 wtf 🤣
Hahah. Who said bar length has to be even numbers.
Spank has offered that size stock. Not even weird.
Fasst is much better.
Hand fatigue? Talking my language here……..
Heck yeah! Make sure you take advantage of the 20% off for the next week only.
I have been using the original Oneup oval bars with 35mm rise for the last couple of years and they certainly work for me. Have had them on my Ibis Ripmo and now my Specialized Levo. Brilliant bars. Arm/hand pump issues are almost eliminated (compared to my old aluminium bars) except on the longest and most intense descents (and that is probably more to do with my bad technique 😏🤔). I don’t think the extra bit of compliance on these new ones would be noticeable for me.
I would have been keen to get these new bars for the ebike stealth, but from what you say they are unfortunately not compatible with the Levo controller 😩.
