Strengths: short and shallow- better dropsWeaknesses: None that I can tellBottom Line: I love these bars. I needed to go to a 44 vs. the stock Bontrager 42 and decided I wanted a shorter drop with the anatomic bends. These bars have been very comfortable for the last 2700 miles and I expect them to continue for the next 2700 miles.

Strengths: Lightweight and absorbs road shock well. Aero drops are friendly to my wrists without any ulnar nerve impingement. No flex in the sprints.Weaknesses: NoneBottom Line: Bought these for a bike I was building up and I needed a 44 width versus my old 42 stock ITM handlebars that came on my bianchi eros.
these are incredibly light and I feel safer with these than with a carbon pair.
Favorite Ride: anything with hills

Strengths: Stiffness, comfortable dimensions. Weight is on par with other alloy bars.Bottom Line: Nice bars, light and stiff. Provide very good control and feel. Replaced Easton EC 90''s that continually slipped in stem. Like the Salsa''s much better; what you got in shock absorption with the 90''s you lost control and stiffness - I much prefer stiffer bars and will sacrifice a few grams in such a critical area. I question the current rage to shave every possible gram in stems and handlebars; seems a dangerous place to be going ultra light.

Strengths: Stong, light, no creaks, and 46 cm center to center.Weaknesses: None so far.Bottom Line: These are a great set of bars. I am a bigger rider 6'1" with wide shoulders. These bars are 46cm center to center, no edge to edge. The extra width allows for better breathing and I haven't had any neck or shoulder pain since I got them. I have 3000 miles on them and not one creak or adjustment yet. Highly recommended for bigger riders looking for wider bars.
