Ritchey Classic Butano handlebar

Named for the multi-use trails behind Tom’s home, the Classic Butano has been designed for the mixed-terrain style of riding Tom is known for, yet brings a timeless look to every ride with its high-polish silver finish.

The Classic Butano handlebar features a shallower 118mm drop for better accessibility and control whether in the hook or on the hood, and features a 12° flare that’s become standard on modern bars for road and gravel. The handlebar doubles down on comfort with a 4° sweep on its ergo top and a modest 73mm reach. Compatible with the Shimano EW-RS910 junction box, the Butano is classic in another sense too: it doesn’t offer internal cable routing. Ready to outperform and outclass all other handlebars on tarmac or gravel, the Classic Butano delivers comfort and control in wider widths, and plenty of performance all around.

Features:

- Anatomical Bend: Anatomic bend with progressive reach and drop to width.
- Compact Bend: A variable radius that changes continuously as it curves - offering good ergonomics for limitless hand positions.
- Super Compact Drops: The shortest possible reach and most shallow drop possible in alloy offer superior comfort.
- Traditional Bend: Classic shape with consistent radius curve that positions hands for a low, aggressive, and aero position.
- Bio-Bend: An ergonomic bump in the drops that supports the curvature of the palm to dissipate pressure.
- Aero Top: Wide, thin, and flat top shape for pure aerodynamics and the highest level of performance.
- Ergo-Aero Top: A flattened round top offers a comfortable ergonomic hand position with aerodynamic benefits.
- Ergonomic Top: A round top that´s extra wide for superior comfort and confidence.

- Drop Flare: Indicates the angle of the drops away from the center of the bar.
- Internal Routing: Brake and shifting cables can route inside the bar for a clean look and aerodynamic benefits.
- Internal Cable Groove: A partially covered internal groove on underside of tops allows for cleaner cable routing.
- 4D Bar Upsweep: 4° upsweep reduces pressure on the outside of the hand without changing reach.
- 10D Bar Design: Proceeded by a forward sweep, the 10° backsweep offers perfect wrist alignment.
- Internal e-Routing: Electronic and shift cables can route inside the bars into to the headset and frame.
