Suggestions for lightweight handlebars for CX?
Moderator: Moderator Team
I'm using Specialized S-Works Shallow. 196-197g in 40cm. Really like the shape and feels a bit sturdier than Deda Superleggera I had before in the same shape.

My wife is running the Thomson KFC bars on one bike and the S-works shallow bend classic drops on another. She is pleased with both. The Thomson bar seems stiffer, which could be good for a larger rider.
I am running the Pro Vibe carbon round drops on my bikes and am really happy with those.
I have also used the 3T Rotundo LTD and Team with good results, although the Team was a bit flexy feeling compared to the Pro.

Why not Ritchey WCS EVOMax or Salsa?
Oki, not that light but what do you like the shape?

I'm using the Thomson KFC in 42....right at 200g or so if memory serves. Plenty stiff.
