Hoping to make things a little more comfortable, Beast Components just released the Ultra. More specifically, the Ultra bar is a made-in-Germany carbon dropbar that focuses on ergonomics to provide a comfortable, controlled ride.
Beast Components says that the bar features three main zones that are focused on ergonomics. Starting with the top of the bars, the flat profile offers a more comfortable place to rest your hands when you’re just cruising a long.
When you’re riding on the hoods, the bar has a unique larger contact surface where your palm would typically be. The bar has flattened the outer edges to allow for a relaxed grip when on the hoods again for increased comfort and reduced fatigue.
Then the drops have a tight bend at the top with a shallower bend on the lower section.
All combined, you should end up with a comfortable bar with an 80mm reach, 128mm drop, 2° backsweep, and a bit of flare. Offered in black Unidirectional Carbon finish, the bars have a claimed weight of 218g for a 42cm, and are priced at 399,90€.
Check out our first look at Beast’s Gravel bar that shares much of the same aero/ergo shaping, but with much wider flare, plus their latest hookless tubeless carbon gravel bike wheels here.
