Velobuild HB010 Handle bar
« on: July 08, 2022, 08:38:13 AM »
Hi there,

I have put my order in for a Velobuild with the HB010 handlebar.

I have read posts about the flare/curve of the bar and how this increases the reach.
Does anyone know how much this increases the reach?

I appreciate all the help in advance!

Thanks,
Alex

According to their website, the reach is 80mm. I would assume this accounts for the flare?
I can't really answer your question, but these bars do run big in general in my experience. I have a 420x100 that by my measurements are both a little long and a little wide. It feels in general bigger than I was expecting, mainly too long.
I'm currently looking to switch handlebars and deciding between the VB separate bar/stem in 400x90 or another HB010 in 400x90. According to VB, the HB010 has 5mm more in reach...
