Flat carbon handlebar with backsweep
« on: July 07, 2026, 11:43:43 AM »
I'm building a flat bar gravel commuter / shop bike. My hands are very used to road bike position so a very straight bar feels a bit weird and pushes my elbows out.

So I'm looking for a comfortable handlebar with backsweep at about 10 degrees or more and a modest rise. Can the carbon bars costing less than 50€ be trusted on ae?

I won't use the bike on trails or rough terrain but would like to still get a handlebar I can trust. I've been looking into alternative shape bars too that are designed for comfort you can recommend those too.
