With comfortable fit characteristics such as shorter reach, shallow drop, and a mellow backsweep, the Nouveau Randonneur Handlebar is optimally designed for long days and nights for riders using integrated shifters and aero brake levers.

The tops are ovalized and swept back ever so slightly from the stem clamp. This makes for a bigger area upon which your hands can rest. A wider palm base means road vibrations and impacts are distributed better and not centralized into a specific spot effectively reducing hand, wrist, and elbow fatigue. Additionally, the sweep lends itself better (than a straight top) to your hands' natural resting position. **Please note, inline levers cannot be installed on this bar, due to this ergonomic profile**

The ramps are 105mm in length (measured from the center of the bend to the edge of the ramp). This gives enough real estate for a full hand's worth of a position behind the hood for cruising, but short enough to easily reach the hood for shifting, braking, and out of the saddle efforts. Measuring traditionally (from the center of the stem clamp to the furthest edge of the brake lever hood mount) the reach is 85mm.

The 128mm worth of drop is casual and the 12 degree worth of flare makes for terrific cornering stability and prevents your forearms from hitting the bars during punchy efforts or obstacle negotiation.

The Nouveau Randonneur Bar is available in three sizes (measured center to center at the hood): 42, 44, and 46cm, two finishes: High-Polished Silver and Smooth Noir, and accepts standard road components such as integrated shifters, aero brake levers, and bar-end shifters.

  • Widths (measured center-to-center at the hoods): 42, 44, 46cm
  • Backsweep: 5 degrees
  • Ramp length: 105mm
  • Traditional reach: 85mm
  • Drop: 128mm
  • Stem clamp diameter: 31.8mm
  • Brake lever clamp diameter: 23.8mm
  • Weight (44cm): 301g

*not compatible with SRAM 10 speed Hydro levers due to the shifter's clamp design. Works fine with everything else including SRAM cable actuated brake levers.

great bars

These bars strike a nice balance of features with the ovalized top section and subtle flare in the drops. A great combination for long days on the bike.

This is my favorite bar hands down. I have this bar on four bikes. I have a bad thumb and the flattish top section feels good. The drops have the perfect amount of flare that they look classic but you don’t hit your four arms when you’re in the drops. I will keep buying this bar for all my road bike builds. My only gripe is it’s hard to find a classic looking quill stem for this bar. The only one I like is the Nitto UI12 and it’s always out of stock. This isn’t Velo’s fault and doesn’t reflect on this great handle bar. One last thing it’s in silver!

NICE!!!
Short extension to brakes and a shallow drop.
What more could I ask for?
