Tom Ritchey has been riding off-road decades before anyone had the idea to call it "gravel riding" or "bikepacking" - and has designed products for such adventures. His real-life experiences are incorporated directly into every Ritchey product - such as the popular VentureMax handlebar. With its short reach, shallow drop and purposeful flare, the original VentureMax provides comfort and confidence for legions of riders looking to settle down and have fun on dirty drop bar adventures.Like the original, the Classic VentureMax is influenced by those life experiences, but adds some new features - to continue to inspire riders to chase gravel and other mixed-surface adventures. With its highly polished silver finish, the Classic VentureMax adds a touch of stylish sophistication. The aero-shaped, ergonomic 38x22.5mm tops provide a more comfortable hand position, while the hole for a Shimano EW-RS910 junction box extends the adaptability of the WCS VentureMax.Multiple hand positions are key to comfort and confidence on any ride, and the Classic VentureMax offers plenty of options here - especially with its wide 24-degree bulge on the drops. But it's the return of the organic bend in the drop that adds another design element that's practical and comfortable no matter what surface you're riding on or how long your adventure lasts. - Intended use: road bike / cyclocross - Weight: 310 g - Details: - Drop Flare: 24 ° - Cable routing: partially internal - Compatible with Shimano EW-RS910 junction box - Clip-on compatibility: limited due to the distances Handlebar - Type: Drop - Backsweep: 6 ° Dimension - Handlebar clamping (mm): 31.8 mm Race handlebar - Drop: 102 mm - Reach: 76 mm Main information - Material type: aluminum.
