Crashed... :mad:

Can somebody tell me what the differences are between the Ritchey Biomax Pro and the Ritchey WCS (anatomical bend) handlebars--in terms of shape? I need to replace the former and want to know whether the WCS will 'feel' the same. Pictures suggest that they both have these particular 'curved' drops. Will the WCS drops be 'lower' than those of the Biomax Pro?

Thanks in advance for your input!

The bars have identical Drop/Reach specs. The only difference is 25 grams in weight the WCS cuts out.

Thanks, BikeInMN! That answers my question, and very satisfactorily so.
