Escapa presents the Roval Rapide aerodynamic road handlebar.
Wind is the worst part of cycling, and nowhere does it hit harder than at the leading edge of your bike. Want to save 20 seconds over 40 kilometers? Get the Roval Rapide 31.8 Road Handlebar. Drawing on countless hours of testing in their wind tunnel, Roval’s engineers have designed the Rapide handlebar to slice through the wind as efficiently as a knife’s edge while offering maximum comfort as the wind hits the front of the bike.
A textured surface on the top section ensures a secure and comfortable grip even when wet; it features a small step that allows the handlebar tape to lie flush with the top; the aerodynamic profile is shifted forward to provide more space for the forearm and knee; weighing 225 grams, the Rapide is the lightest aerodynamic handlebar in its class. It’s uncompromising aerodynamic performance.
