New Bars
I am in the market for new alloy bars for my CAAD10 reduce drop and reach. I am currently running Ritchey logic with big traditional drop and reach and am not comfortable in the drops. I have more compact bars on another bike that are a more comfortable 130mm drop and about 75mm reach so am looking at options in that range. Welcome comments and experiences with the Contenders:
1. Deda Zero100: 130/75; 263gr, No sweep, no flare. Same measurements as my compact bars but I am thinking I might like some back sweep to be more upright when on the tops. Would have to get 46cm rather than usual44 because Deda measures outside to outside.
2.Zipp Service Course: 128/70 or 80; 265gr. 3degree backsweep,4 degree flare. 70 mm maybe too short, 80 maybe too long.
3.Ritchey WCS Streem III: 128/73; 280gr. 4.7 degree backsweep, 2 degree flare. This is the leading contender, mainly because I have always used Ritchey stems and bars and have liked their products. Maybe a bit more sweep than I want.
4. Ritchey WCS Evocurve 128/83;265;4degree sweep, 2 degree flare. A bit more reach than I want.
