Canyon Dancer redesigned the cups using glass-filled injection-molded polycarbonate and added steel lay-in D-rings so the harness keeps bikes secure even after extended outdoor use. The Bar-Harness II positions straps farther out on the bars to clear fairings and prevent pressure on delicate switch assemblies, while cup sizing accommodates the fattest grips on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Bar-Harness II protect soft grips and switch housings?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe molded polycarbonate cups cradle grips instead of clamping directly on rubber, dispersing pressure across a molded surface to avoid localized damage. By holding the cross straps farther from the center, the design reduces contact with switch housings and prevents abrasion or crushing of controls during transit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGlass-filled polycarbonate cups avoid pinch points on rubber grips\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraps anchor outside the bar center to clear switch housings and fairings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMolded cup shape fits larger, softer grips without crushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this harness hold up to weather and repeated use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCanyon Dancer reinforced the webbing with heavier thread and increased stitch counts to extend longevity under load and abrasion.
