I am interested in replacing my steel bar with the Modolo Curvissima KX Carbon bar. Does anyone have it and recommend it? I am looking for an comfortable light ergonomic carbon bar that has a short reach and was wondering if this fit the bill?

Yes I have two of them. They have a short reach and drop.
They are one of the most comfortable bars I have ever had.

They come in two styles, standard and OS, for weight reduction I have always used the standard diameter bar. I have never noticed any flex.

Anyone with small hands, or a desire for a short drop, they are ideal.

For what it's worth, it is the same bar that John Kerry uses.

anyone else on the forum used the modolo Curvissima KX Carbon bar? i am thinking about getting them in a 31.6. the choice is that cinelli neo carbo, or if they make the kuota viking bars in 110x44.

how is stiffness on the modolo Curvissima KX Carbon bar? they look very comfortable.

I think the Modolo is one of the nicest bars available.
