Mint / near mint+ / near mint / excellent+ / excellent / great / very good / average / fair.

Description
This Hex Labs is made from 6al-4v titanium, while the current models are 3al-2.5v titanium. This must be an older model, or a sold out one?
 
All Box handlebars are engineered and crafted using our Oversized Technology. Handlebars have a dual purpose as they contribute to both steering and pedaling stiffness. By strategically varying wall thicknesses and tube diameters, we have moved material from 3 low-stress areas to zones of high load. This has greatly minimized twist and contributed to responsiveness. Concurrently we have increased pedaling stiffness by providing a backstop to the “lifting” phenomenon. There is no point pushing hard on your pedals if you can’t pull up on your handlebars and deliver that power. Power can easily be lost to handlebar-deflection and the consequences can lead to poor power delivery and steering control. When combined with Box’s other Oversized components, you’ll experience heightened responsiveness and reduced latency.

Key differences: This particular model handlebar is tailored for larger-sized racers. Titanium allows us to explore the structural rigidity of steel, but without the weight compromise. It is a solution as exotic as carbon fiber but gives a slightly different result for the discerning racer. Carbon will contribute to a more aggressive steering response, while titanium will feel highly sensitive but more refined.
 
Condition
 
Excellent used shape. Zero damage, some surface level cosmetic finish wear. This should easily polish up to look near new.

I'm always buying high end bikes, parts, accessories, memorabilia, etc. While I'm particularly seeking large piles of new old stock parts, used items in nice condition are welcome.
