The Exact upgrade I was looking for my older road bike. I recently bought a Cannondale Topstone. The newer trend is the drop bars tend to flare outward. My old drop bars also were perfectly round in the lower grip. This becomes somewhat uncomfortable and really shows in longer rides. This Enve bar not only has the flare but the main grip is flat bottomed. So it feels more natural. It is an expensive bar. It's a great upgrade for older road bikes and for owners like me who aren't ready to let go of their old bike. It has a more modern look, some nice Aero benefits. And it feels great.
Was supper stoked to find this on REI. Even more stoked when I got to use a 20% off discount code. However when I received my handlebars, the ends were cut off and the bars had residue from previously being wrapped. So I took them in to exchange for another set but REI could only offer a refund?! No explanation. Very disappointing experience.
