VeloRacer Posted May 2, 2008 Share Ok, I want upgrade my handle bar and I see you get different shapes and bends. At the moment I am using a bar with an 'anatomic' bend and I know what a 'classic' bend is. So...what is 'compact anatomic' and 'shallow drop'??

wisecrack Posted May 2, 2008 Share This should be an interesting discussion. I'm also in the market for new bars as the reach and drop of my FSA K wing bars is stretching my out on the bike. Also looking for a shallow drop kind of bars with a shorter reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaskar Posted May 5, 2008 Share I went from the FSA K-Wing flat carbon bar to this bar, and i find it much more comfortable in the drops.

_Daemon_ Posted May 6, 2008 Share FSA k-wing, but the shallow drop one, love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisecrack Posted May 6, 2008 Share Thanks for the explanation and picture Zaskar. I think EC90 SLX3 is my next buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javadude Posted May 6, 2008 Share That SLX is nice. What i don't like about the FSA's is the angle at which the levers are tilted. Looks a bit weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PEEZ@ Posted May 6, 2008 Share That looks like a lovely bar 'The Guy in Pink' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Guy in Pink Posted May 6, 2008 Share It has some good hand positions, and the flat bit is concave underneath for the fingers. A very good climbing bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javadude Posted May 6, 2008 Share That is also nice, do you have any photos of it on the bike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Guy in Pink Posted May 6, 2008 Share The only photo's i have are not too good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
