ABSTRACT:
A brace connected between the arms of a bicycle handlebar includes spaced, longitudinally extending legs formed in a U-shaped cross section having an open interior. The barce is bent inwardly at each end forming end portions of reduced cross section which are each contoured to mount to a handlebar arm by welding or brazing. By providing an open interior along the length of the brace, cleaning or plating solutions applied after welding are drained away so that they cannot later seep out onto the final paint or chrome coating of the handlebar and ruin the finish.
