SYNCROS CRESTON SL COMPACT HANDLEBAR

The Syncros superlight SL Line uses the highest quality carbon fibre and construction techniques to produce components that are on average 10% lighter while maintaining the same performance and durability characteristic. These race bred components represent the absolute top of the range, designed specifically for SCOTT RC bikes.

The foundation of our carbon components are our fibres. At Syncros we mainly use unidirectional carbon fibres. These show more tensile strength and modulus than woven carbon patterns. (Tensile strength is the amount of force needed to cause the fibres to break, while the tensile modulus is a measure of the carbon fibre's stiffness). This gives us the ability to produce very light carbon products and to be one of the innovation leaders in the industry.

This process allows us to mold really intricate parts and shapes that we couldn’t otherwise. The molding material is first placed into the heated mold which is then closed and pressure is applied to force the material into the shape we want while heat is applied. The heat and pressure continues until the material has cured.
