• Suspicious there is a bit of Ultrarom-instacrust cool aid at work, but will happily eat my narrow bars if people still using them in 2 years time.

    You might just be right. I can't see a single benefit to these.

  • I do think "Gravel drops" really come down to personal preference way more than any other handlebar. Whats works for one person... I have tried loads of them and Woodchippers were brilliant on Fargo with drops at same height as saddle, but prefer Cowchippers as the 24 deg flare, shorter reach and drop work really well for me on a gravel bike.
    I guess one advantage of wider bars is more space for bigger front luggage (if you need it)

  • To be fair, I should try some 70cm drops with a -30mm stem before I knock it, right?

    I want to try woodchippers next but getting them to a suitable height will hardly be an exercise in beautification
