Those are pretty cool bars in #1 and #3…I can't see using them on any of my bikes (maybe the trainer bike?) but want. What are they?

Actually Le Grenouille is sporting Di2 since last week. Di2 ready frameset made in 2015, took me until now to Di_bother.

Those are version one Soma Condors. I have tried them a few times across a few bikes, this time they stuck. The V2 tops are improved, and I can say I'd rater have/try them.

The V1 tops have less useful grabs for my gorilla hands. The drops are heaven, which why they are now in stuck mode I guess. They got near 5CM rise, which can be useful in some circumstances...

Funny all these All Road Pic are mostly round waterways.


BTW; The one pic without the condors bars are one piece Deda I tried on for a century with skinny tires. They were on for a bit, but now on my Domane Team Issue. They have a small areo loop that for long saddle bouts gives some respite on the hands position/pressures.

I grab that Domane w/those bars for Long Treks [no pun] as my first bike grab, with 30mm +/- tires... Used to use the Strong for those long treks until the Doamne landed...

Note: 'Long Treks', that Classics Dom is near as long a Trek as the Tourers, but not quite @ 105CM WB.
