Easton

Easton started as an arrow shaft manufacturer in 1922 before turning its material science expertise toward cycling — and the transition stuck. The brand entered the bike world in 1989 with a butted-aluminum mountain bike handlebar, followed quickly by its first carbon cockpit components. By the mid-2000s Easton was pushing the limits of carbon tube construction, and the brand's CINCH direct-mount crankset system has since become a clean solution for riders looking to simplify drivetrain installation without sacrificing stiffness.

The RA Cycles Easton collection covers handlebars, stems, seatposts, and cranksets across road and gravel applications — from the EC90 SLX carbon drop bar to accessible EA-series alloy options. Each tier of the lineup is built with the same attention to shape, weight, and finish that has kept Easton relevant at both the club level and the pointy end of the peloton.

About Easton

Easton's roots go back to 1922 in Van Nuys, California, where Doug Easton began manufacturing aluminum arrow shafts. The company built a dominant position in archery before applying its metallurgy and precision manufacturing to cycling. The first Easton cycling product — a TaperLite butted-aluminum mountain bike handlebar — arrived in 1989, followed by the Easton Sports Lab in 1990 and the brand's first carbon fiber handlebar in 1998. Decades of material development have established Easton's EC and EA product lines as a trusted choice for riders who want measurable performance without unnecessary weight. You can explore the full range at Easton's official website.

RA Cycles stocks the Easton cockpit and drivetrain lineup across road and gravel applications. Drop bars range from the EC90 SLX and EC70 SL for road to the EC70 AX for gravel work, with alloy EA70 options covering more value-conscious builds. The stem selection runs from the EC90 carbon through the EA70, and seatposts mirror that tiering with EC90 SL, EC70, and EA-series choices. Completing the collection is the EC90 SL Carbon CINCH Direct Mount crankset and compatible CINCH bottom brackets in BB86 and BB386 configurations.
