As one of the innovators of mountain bike handlebars, Ritchey knows a thing or two about designing them for modern riders. Let’s take a look at the new Comp Buzzard ($49.95) below…
Ritchey’s new handlebar, the Comp Buzzard offers 820 mm of width 70 mm flat rise, a modest reach, and 27.5° backsweep. This ergonomic combination promotes a more upright and comfortable riding position, relieves pressure from the wrists, and allows the rider to settle back and into the bike – rather than hunching over in an aggressive and non-sustainable angle.

- Rise: 70 mm flat rise
- Backsweep: 27.5°
