Deda Superleggera RS Carbon Handlebar

Deda Superleggera RS Carbon Handlebar Info

RS means racing special. The Deda Superleggera RS Carbon Handlebar is a limited edition version of the Superleggera. It features special Polish on Black (POB) graphics that you’ll probably want to leave the tops naked just to show off.

The Superleggera line is the high-zoot carbon stuff designed for the most demanding racers. It leans heavily on high modulus HR40 carbon-fiber to get down the weight and amplify the strength.

The shape is their RHM, Rapid Hand Movement, drop, a semi-ergo compact curve, with 75mm of reach and 130mm of drop. The tops keep the 31.7mm clamp diameter fairly far out, only tapering down to the 24mm clamp diameter as the bars start to curve forward.

One of the benefits of the oversized shape on the tops is that it’s easy to grasp. What’s hidden from view is the deep channel underneath the tops where both your shift and brake cable housing can hide.

Deda recommends mating these bars with their Superleggero RS stem.

There are three width options for the bars, 42, 44, and 46cm, measured outside-to-outside. The 42cm version weighs 180g.
