Bontrager RSL Aero Road Handlebar

The RSL Aero Road Handlebar is built with the same Race shape as Madone, which is equipped with a shorter reach and hoods that are 3cm narrower than the drops. This moves you into a more comfortable ergonomic riding position that greatly reduces rider drag for an extra aerodynamic advantage. A 6-degree flare allows for ample wrist clearance and control, so you don't lose any power or comfort in explosive sprinting moments.
