Ritchey WCS Beacon Handlebars

Out of Stock


The ergonomic evolution of Ritchey handlebars continues with the ground-breaking Beacon

The most notable feature is its super-wide 36° drop flare. Aside from the unmatched ergonomic comfort and stability afforded by this wide flare, it also allows for plenty of space for handlebar packs.

When riding in the drops, the Beacon doubles down on comfort with a very shallow 80mm drop and a shorter-than-usual reach. The Evo-style top section offers broad support for your hands, and has a gentle backward sweep for a more natural hand position when riding the tops.

The unconventional aesthetic of the Beacon belies its comfort and practicality. Taking inspiration from the randonneur world, the Beacon allows an easy transition of the hands around the bar without upsetting bike handling when loaded with gear. The gentle change of hand position allows the body to stretch and move while keeping the bike stable.

Ideal for adventure touring and bikepacking, on asphalt or gravel trails – or even for urban riding – this unique handlebar brings a whole new level of comfort and control.
