Using this handlebar is straightforward. Just mount it on your bike's stem using the 31.8mm clamp. Make sure it's tightened properly so it doesn't shift during your ride. When using it for bikepacking or touring, the wide 780mm design gives you good stability and control. The 25° backsweep helps keep your wrists comfortable on long trips. As for maintenance, regularly check the tightness of the clamp. If it gets dirty, you can clean it with a mild soap and water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the 6061 T6 aluminum surface. Store your bike in a dry place to prevent rusting. And that's all you need to know to get the most out of your Soma Dream Riser Handlebar.
