Pro Vibe Alloy Compact Handlebar Black - 42cm

Description

The alloy chosen is AL-7075. They’ve taken the 31.8mm clamp diameter center section and just continued it on out. The bend is a fairly traditional rounded shape. It’s light, strong, easy to work with, and durable. The drops are a compact shape, with 130mm of drop and 80mm of reach. There are plenty of people who prefer the predictability and reliability of aluminum over carbon. PRO builds the Vibe Alloy Compact Handlebar to be just like the Vibe Carbon, just in a more economical material. There are exit ports by the stem, both for routing internally through a Di2 stem for a battery, and routing back externally for the rest of the controls. If it gives you confidence, it’s worth the few extra grams—in this case the 38cm center-to-center bar weighs in at 240g. This adds to the overall stiffness, as well as giving you more to hold on to. This is thanks to PRO continuing the use of an oversized top section all the way from the hooks on one side to the hooks on the other. The PRO Vibe Alloy Handlebars are available in 38, 40, 42, and 44cm widths, measured center-to-center. The bar is also very stiff. You’ll see the intake port on the drops below where you run your brakes, this is because they didn’t want to put the port in a high-stress section of the bar. If it gives you confidence, it’s worth the few extra grams—in this case the 38cm center-to-center bar weighs in at 240g. The PRO Vibe Alloy Handlebars are available in 38, 40, 42, and 44cm widths, measured center-to-center.
