I've had these bars on both my gravel and road bikes for several years now. Love 'em! Don't want to go back, ever! I have SRAM Force & Red, so no need for the internal cable routing. I did the internal routing for my brake cables...a pain in the butt, and no big advantage. Now I have both bikes' brakes routed externally....much simpler to set up and to change, if I need to, and the bends in the cables/housing is not at as sharp angles as the internal routing, so I think it actually works better to route externally (the cables go on the underside of the bars, and are well-hidden by the bartape). If you're serious about optimizing your biomechanics on the bike, these bars are a must-have. I have good relief from shoulder and elbow pain, and am very comfortable when on the tops. Well worth the money if you do a lot of cycling. And I love the way my Garmin easily mounts right out front, no hassles.

Nice video. I have Campy Record 12 speed mech. rim brake group. Would it be easy to route brake and shift cables through those holes, or is this more for electronic groups ? Thanks

Very helpful and clear review. Thanks. It looks as if your external cabling is pretty neat but I can't see quite where you're routed it. Presumably it's just going along the underside of the bar? Would you be happy to use the bars with the cables external like that, even disregarding your particular need to change bars frequently? I ask since I'm considering these bars for a bike with hydraulic brakes and mechanical gears and would prefer not to route the cables and hoses through the bars unless external is problematic either visually or aesthetically. Thanks.

It was a while ago but from memory I just ran them around the front edge to the bend then the trailing edge from there. Zero issues aesthetically and practically and potentially more aero too I guess. Less tight bends to upset your gear cables too 👍🏻

Jolly good. I'd thought that might be the case, but it's nice to be reassured before a fairly non-trivial 'investment'. Thanks very much :-)

Enjoyed your reviews of the AR & RR handlebars. Which would you use for road bike? gravel bike? Also, do you think the hand positioning helps with hand numbness? Would one be better than the other regarding the numbness issue? Thanks!

Is that extended bit on the front actually long enough to get into a makeshift TT position (one that is tangibly faster than arguably the next fastest position, which is bending the elbows to ~ 45 degrees while on the hoods) or in practice is it more or less like griping the tops of the bars but with a little more reach than normal? Of all the features this bar has, its potential for a much more secure "invisible TT bars" position interests me the most.

Think of it as like ‘puppy paws’ but with a lot more security and control. So definitely not a full TT position but a lot narrower than normal and the hand/wrist position feels a lot more comfortable/sustainable than hands in centre with a big elbow bend

Just curious, was standard length bar tape long enough? Or did you use multiple rolls? I ask because I've seen other videos where they only wrapped the bars a little past the bends. Not sure if that was done for aesthetics or some other reason...?

Just normal length but wrapping round the humps is a bit of a pain so that's why people might stop short. Wrapping the ARs is a real patience tester!

Now they just need to have a reseller in Europe, cause as much as i like this bar I sure as shit won't pay 20-40% more on the already steep price in toll tariffs on top. No way josé..

As a bike fitter, these ultra expensive bar and stem/bar options have me as baffled as the rest of the high end road/gravel bike market. I get the marketing - everyone wants to look like the guys in the tour, but… I spend a lot of time explaining that the quality control over the human body sucks, and position on the bike has more to do with your parents, your occupation and your injury history than it does about which pro cyclist you want to emulate. When a client comes in with one of those $400 bars and all the flexibility of a cinder block, I have to worry. There is science to fitting bars, for example the reach from tops to the end of the hoods should be determined by lower back flexibility x torso length, allowing them to get their center of gravity over the pedal at 3:00 when the gear can support their full body weight, and also allowing them to sit up in a smaller gear and take almost all of the strain off their lower back. The idea of one bar being the ideal reach or drop for everybody is marketing to the uninformed. I hear there’s one born every minute. I have nothing against these bars (except the marketing). As a bike fitter interested in better bike fitting as a general goal, I would prefer to see good information about how things should fit, with the emphasis on getting the fit right before spending the money on expensive carbon bars. This bar is really no more expensive than a lot of other carbon bars, far less expensive than most proprietary one piece bar and stem units. So much new tech, so much data, so much communication - why does it seem like we’re going in the wrong direction?

Just grab the Eyropro handlebar. It is the original design that other's have copied.

As you know, Coefficient has already proven in court that they are the original designer. This is not very kind of you to continue to try and slander their reputation.
