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.
