Bicycle Handlebars

The choice of bicycle handlebars dramatically changes the character of the bike. Depending on which bike you have, there are a few things to consider. Drop bars are standard on road bikes and also tend to be found on gravel bikes. On a racer, however, we want a narrow one, preferably shoulder-width or narrower for better aerodynamics. On a gravel bike, we want wider bars for better control on rough terrain and preferably with flare. You also get space for a large handlebar bag and accessories. More and more people are looking at alternative handlebars today, wide bars with backsweep and other fun solutions for bikepacking or touring. Fixed gear and single speed often have wide MTB handlebars today for urban cycling, a trend we've seen in recent years. Trend or not, you get very good leverage and it's easier to resist the forces of the crankset when you skid. Below you will find a selection of handlebars so you can ride efficiently.
