The Ritchey WCS Flat Handlebar doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not, and why should it This bar has more World Cup XC wins than any other handlebar on the market. Go ahead, knock out 100 miles of singletrack, or put it on your commuter to help you rack up wins in the stoplight sprint series -this bar loves variety.

Strengths: Very lightweight, UCI colors look awesome, good ergonomic bend and very strong.
Weaknesses: None.
Bottom Line:
This is a very nice lightweight bar for the money I spent on it. Note: this is a cross country bar, not for any aggressive riding. If you are a bike killer this is not for you. Anyhoo, it looks great on the bike and it works great for my purposes. If you can get it for a great price and like a little bit of the bling factor.
