Today, we’re peeling back the curtain on one of the cycling industry’s most experienced, globally recognized, and revered manufacturers of superlative bicycle components that continue to define and stand the test of time. Join the SimWorks crew for a trip inside Nitto for thoughtful insights into their commitment to traditional craft and manufacturing processes, their uniquely Japanese philosophy on quality and dedication to process, and how their past continues to direct their future.
Rivendell’s new Nitto stems feature a little less rise but still have ultra-long quill insertions…
Sim Works’ trusty, Nitto-made dirt drop, the To Smile bar, is back in stock, and this round, it’s been updated with a 31.8 ⌀ clamp.
If you have a Nitto rack and are looking to mount a generator or USB charging light to the struts, Shovel Research just adapted its Rod Steward light mounts to Nitto’s 7mm strut diameter…

Looking to offer its newest bar in a variety of clamp sizes and specs, the newest Rivendell handlebar is one for the masses. The Tosco mid-rise bar fills out the Bosco family of bars. The Bosco is a high-rise, the Losco (a Blue Lug bar) is low-rise. If you don’t like the standard 25.4mm clamp diameter, well there are options for that. You can order a Tosco in a 31.8mm clamp or a direct-to-steerer 1 1/8″ direct mount (pictured). These bars retail for $60 ($120 for direct clamp) and are in stock at Rivendell right now.
There is no shortage of bar choices out there but one manufacturer rules the list. NITTO makes some of the best bars in the world and for their latest release, Ride Farr worked with NITTO to make the Supa-Moto Riser Bars from 2014 alloy.
Inspired by Flat Tracker bikes and the current trend of Klunker and Cruiser builds.
-Retro styled riser handlebar with 32mm rise and wider center section
-Updated 31.8 bar diameter so can be used with modern MTB stems
-Reasonably wide at 780mm so can also be used on Trail and XCO style builds
-Some extra bend on the ends for more comfort – these are 16 degree sweep!
-Added center width allows space for bags and accessories
-Ideal for bikepacking / touring / trail use – they’re damn comfy for sure.
-Weight : 395g ( 780mm length uncut )
Pre-order price is $95 with delivery in December at Ride Farr.
