Details
Think about it: there are only 3 contact points on a bike, so you'd better make each one as comfy as you can. Salsa makes it easy with the Carbon Poco bar. The Pocos feature super short reaches and longer drops that fit smaller hands better and bring the bar closer to your body, making a tucked position easier for shorter riders. The tops boast hand-friendly, ergonomic tops and the sloping anatomic section was made a bit steeper to bring your hands closer to the brake levers. The angles are perfect for modern integrated levers and have double-groove cable routing that's Campy, SRAM and Shimano compatible. And, the carbon construction quells road chatter and keeps the bar feathery light and insanely strong.
Which Reach and Drop you prefer depends on your hand size, arm length and riding style. If you like what you're riding, simply match it as closely as possible. In general, deeper drops and longer reaches are appropriate for riders with long arms and large hands while narrow drops and short reaches fit smaller riders. Handlebar Width is related to shoulder width. Riders usually prefer a handlebar width equal to the measurement between their shoulder blades, or slightly wider if they climb a lot or ride fast and hard.
Reach: 70mm
Drop: 140mm
Weight: 192 grams
