Description
The ergonomic evolution of the Ritchey handlebars has been further expanded with the revolutionary Beacon XL. In addition to its super-wide 36° flare, its most remarkable feature is its width. In addition to the unparalleled ergonomic comfort and stability provided by this dramatic flare and extra width, it also offers plenty of room for handlebar packs. When riding on the slopes, the Beacon doubles the comfort with an 80mm drop and a more court than usual reach. The ergo-aero top section offers ample support for your hands, and it's angled slightly backward for a more natural hand position when riding uphill. The Beacon XL's unconventional aesthetic does not detract from its comfort and practicality. Taking inspiration from the world of backpacking and adding a little practicality, the Beacon allows for an easy transition of hands around the handlebars without disrupting the handling of the bike when loaded with all the gear that now fits on the handlebars. The smooth change in hand position allows the body to stretch and move while keeping the bike stable. Ideal for adventure touring and bikepacking, on asphalt or gravel trails - or even for urban riding - the unique Beacon XL brings a whole new measure of comfort and control.
