Triangular, three-lobed section, Contact is in aluminum alloy AL 7075 T6. Extrusion and heat treatment are the key words of Cinelli handlebars. The tube is drawn twice to ensure thickness accuracy and correct coupling with reinforcement sleeve. The three-lobed shape gives a larger grip surface, while the shaped padding in the upper part of the grip absorbs vibrations and makes the grip safer.

Strengths: Nice ergo bends, comfortable to grip, padding for the drops, withstood a crash pretty well, easy to use with aero brake cables.
Weaknesses: Funky design requires special end plugs, difficult to get the plugs to stay in the bars.
Bottom Line:
They were nice and cheap (on sale), but I wouldn't pay retail for them and I probably wouldn't buy them again because of the funky end plug requirement. If you ever loose a plug, you're probably going to be out-of-luck finding a replacement. On the whole, I don't think they're that much better than the Profile bars on a couple of my other bikes.

Hi,
Does anyone have any contact information for Rox USA in Tucson? They are best known for their rim strips, but they make other products, too.
Thanks.

Some but not enough wear or carry emergency contact information while riding. Even if you do, you'll see the importances of this site.

What has happened with the Continental Top Contact folding tires with the Vectran bead? They seem to be out of stock everywhere. I really enjoyed riding their 700c x 37mm tires on Read More »
