I am planning to upgrade my gravel bike (handlebar) with 105Di2 and F1 handlebar for some time now. I was now thinking of upgrading the handlebar now, and Di2 later.

Does F1s fit mechanical gearing as well? and is it a hard setup? So 2 cable housing on each side?
Currently the handlebar is wider and is still space to cut the housings, so will try to mount it with housings already in the bike/frame.
Does anybody have any experiance?

Do you know this video? Maybe it helps.

Does anyone have pictures of a slammed F1S/X cockpit on a Tarmac SL8? Would be much appreciated!

+ is the farsports logo strip removable?

It’s -3 degrees sleeve but I was informed that is included upon request.
Nevertheless they sent me such sleeve for free.

Hi,

i requested the -3° sleeve when ordering the bar 34 days ago (although expressing my willingness to pay for it), but of course they did not put the sleeve into the package.

Since i have big problems to cause any response/reaction from the "support": May i ask, how you managed to make them send you the sleeve? On which way did you contact them?

Thank you very much, best regards,

I have bought my handlebar via AliExpress and then contacted them. They responded quite quickly.

Here you are more contacts

Hi,

thank you very much for the info, very helpful.

I bought directlyt via farsports, next time i would buy via AliExpress as well.

Just set the bar up with the 0° sleeve. I suppose i can ride it, surprisingly feels much more comfortable than expected. Nevetheless i would appreciate having the -3° sleeve as well, not getting younger!

Best regards,

I want to buy FARSPORTS F1s Handlebar for my Systemsix to replace HollowGram KNOT stem and SystemBar combo however I'm puzzled about which steerer tube size I should select.
There are two options 1-1/8" (OD1) and 1-1/4" (OD2).

As per spec the upper part is 1-1/8


Does it mean that OD1 is the way to go?
Would appreciate any advice as Farsport didn't reply via the contact form just yet
Thanks

Looks like you have the 1 1/8, but would wait for reply from Farsport, or any other comfirmation.
You can also use coupon FAR-OFF-50 for your purchase.

Wow! I'm defenitely going to use it! Thanks a lot @Agent041

So as I understand it the Farsports F1 cockpits are designed for the FSA ACR headset standard. Do they still require an spacer adapter between the cockpit and the FSA top headset cover like they provide for other brands of bikes with their own proprietary headset standards? Or do Farsports provide an alternative headset cover?

How is the internal hose routing on these cockpits? A royal pain in the arse, or is there an internal channel all the way so you simply push the hose through one end and it comes out the correct location on the other?

Is the F1X a noodle or no discernible stiffness difference to the F1S? Can you fit a GoPro/light mount underneath that super thin looking F1X computer mount, or only underneath the beefier F1S computer mount?

Did anybody fit a new Garmin 1050 in these bars? I heard the quarter mount on the new 1050 is in a different position to the previous 1040 and 1030, making the fit in some integrated bars impossible? Can anybody tell what is the position difference between new 1050 and previous models? Thanx

Hi,

I’ve got F1s bar with stock garmin holder.
1050 fits perfectly but there is no space for using silicon case or something like that. You must install garmin computer naked
Overall is looks very well matched imho.

Can anyone share a photo with Garmin 1030 or 1040 mounted on the cockpit? Prefebly on F1x (but F1s will be good to). How much space is between handlebar and Garmin.

There is a lot of space

I assume that is F1s (and not F1x)?
And which Garmin? 1040?
