OneUp’s bar profile minimises the length of the (35mm) clamp area “as this is the stiffest portion of any 35 diameter bar …

Which leaves less room to mount your lights, Garmin, handlebar pack bracket etc. Meh, just give us 31.8mm clamps then you don't need to compromise other aspects of the design to accommodate overly stiff bars.

I like the look of the grips and the stash tool though.

"On the Dole" could become new roadie slang for fruit-based doping!

Omg another bottle with a dirt shield/cap, finally! Seemed an easy design feature for Camelbak to have a monopoly on

3l of water carried on the bike? Blimey. It'd be like Catch 22 - wow riding such a heavy bike is making me really thirsty I need to drink more..! 😆

Love the one up Stem stash tool thing - & that you can purchase the the stash part separately so you can just swap it between bikes before going out.

I think the pricing is wrong in the article. I got one last month and it was £44.

Does seem like oneup just want to invent the 31.8 bar? And yet they don't sell one I think, only a 35mm one with minimised 35mm ness

Surely the price of that tyre is a misprint? ( Makes a change from how much????🙄)

They’ve been around for ages, and are unfortunately a bit rubbish. Even in the photo there the cap isn’t hinging where it’s supposed to, so it just wears itself out and falls apart

I’ve never seen a MTB tyre that expensive. That’s madness.

I recently bought 2 Wolkfpack trail tyres and they were £15 cheaper including shipping from Germany than that one tyre. I will never spend that on a push bike tyre - there will always be decent alternatives.
