Ritchey Comp Flat +/-5mm Handlebar | MTB AluminumElevate your mountain bike´s performance and dial in your perfect riding position with the Ritchey Comp Flat +/-5mm Handlebar. A masterclass in functional design, this handlebar is engineered for the discerning MTB cycling enthusiast who demands precision, reliability, and tunable comfort. Whether you´re navigating technical cross-country singletrack, tackling an endurance marathon, or simply enjoying your favorite local trails, this bar delivers the control and confidence you need to push your limits.The standout feature of this exceptional handlebar is its versatile height adjustment. The innovative design offers a subtle 5mm of rise, but by simply flipping the bar, it provides a 5mm drop. This +/-5mm range allows you to fine-tune your cockpit height with precision, enabling a more aggressive, low-profile stance for climbing and aerodynamics, or a slightly more upright position for enhanced comfort on long rides and better control on descents. As Ritchey states, The flat bar packs the material technology, strength and weight you expect from a Ritchey bar, with an additional +/-5 mm of height adjustment for additional comfort and confidence.Crafted from high-quality, double-butted 6061 aluminum, the Comp Flat bar strikes an ideal balance between strength, stiffness, and low weight. The double-butting process intelligently varies the wall thickness, placing more material at the high-stress clamp and control areas while thinning the center sections to shed unnecessary grams. This results in a handlebar that is robust enough for aggressive MTB cycling yet light enough to keep your rig feeling nimble and responsive.The ergonomics are carefully considered for long-haul comfort. A gentle 5-degree backsweep provides a more natural wrist angle, reducing fatigue and strain during extended periods in the saddle. At 710mm wide, it offers ample leverage for steering through challenging terrain and maintaining stability at speed, while still being narrow enough to navigate tight trees. For riders seeking a custom fit, the bar includes markings for easy trimming. The industry-standard 31.8mm clamp diameter ensures wide compatibility with most modern mountain bike stems.Upgrade your ride with a component born from decades of racing heritage and engineering excellence. The Ritchey Comp Flat +/-5mm Handlebar is the perfect choice for riders seeking a high-value, performance-driven aluminum handlebar that offers an extra degree of fit customization for a truly optimized MTB cycling experience.Technical Specifications:- Material: Double Butted 6061 Aluminum- Clamp Diameter: 31.8 mm- Rise: +/- 5 mm (Reversible)- Width: 710 mm- Backsweep: 5°- Finish: Bead Blasted Black- Weight: 276g
