Strengths: Very light weight, very cool looking, mine were cheap but others may not be, internal cable routingWeaknesses: Carbon- so with the jarring mine took which would have been fine with my 3Ts, mine cracked. Also, positioning a little off from what I am used toBottom Line: Great bars- little awkward from my 3T. Flats at drops very short, but very comfy on tops for long rides. Placement of shifters doesn't allow a flat top like I am used to with the wings on the top flat, but I would deal with that... but I cracked them. I was in a pace line and hit a very minor hop on the pavement and cracked it along the bottom, then the slipped a little, then alot. Long ride to car...

Strengths: comfortable ergo touches, reasonable weight, vibration damping qualities of carbonWeaknesses: aggressive ergo bend, minimal flat section at the bottom of the dropBottom Line: This bar has a ton of great features. The internal cable routing is great, easy to run the cables through and doesn't rattle around. The flat sections on the tops are comfortable as is to be expected but they add nice touches like indentations for your thumbs on the inside and the underside is concave in shape so you can really wrap your fingers around it. There's also a nice drop to hood position, don't know how to describe it better but it makes a difference in the overall comfort of the bar. The ergo section of the drops is pretty aggressive, so you better be sure you want ergo's if you're buying these. There's a minimal flat section on the bottom for cruising in the drops so this is definitely more of a racers bar.

Strengths: Very broad flowing wing section that distributes your weight over large area of the hand. Very strong, could not flex these in all out sprints. Looks super on the bike.Weaknesses: Limited area to attach bike computers, lights, etc. $350 is alot for handlebarsBottom Line: I've ridden over 1000 miles with this bar and the ergo wing section is very comfortable even on longest ride of 62 miles. Reduces the road buzz transmission to your hands and arms. Contoured section above brakehoods area to reduce pressure point when hands are place there. This bar has no flat section but is continuously curved every where to better fix the shape of your hands. Your hands will fall in love with this the first time they hold it. Very well finished product with No rough spots or edges.
