Allows for derailleur adjustments from the handlebars and works on Shimano road shifters.
Ready for adventure, this solid model uses a 6061 alloy body construction which makes it perfect for tackling all the challenges that come with a long day in the saddle. Richey has also gone the distance with this version by giving it a bead blasted finish which further protects it against the elements and road-side obstacles. To top it off, its updated Comp graphics give it a stylish appearance which makes it look as awesome as it performs.
The reason for the easier installation or removal is thanks to Ritchey's unique "press-fit" handlebar clamp. This design improves the interface between the stem and handlebar making attaching the bars to your bike simpler and faster. Also, the forward-facing bolts mean fine tune adjustments are a breeze. Secure and Stable Engagement In addition to easy installation, the WCS 220's clamp design creates a stable and secure bar engagement. This, in turn, increases bar stiffness for more precise handling, sprinting and climbing. Also, the coated CrMo bolts are positioned in alignment with the clamp plate's face for a more efficient hold and reduced flex.

Maintaining Ritchey's reputation for high-performance handlebars, the WCS Streem III borrows the drop shape of its renowned Curve bar and puts it to full use in making sure every run is as dynamically sound as possible. With a UCI-approved 38x22.5mm wing-shaped top section, 128mm drop and 73mm reach, it is ideally sized to maximise comfort and handling to keep you fully focused on the finish line. With an extended centre section for clip-on tri-bar compatibility and coming predrilled for Shimano Di2 bar-end junction box on the bottom of the drop, it carries a modern, versatile design, making it a must-have for today's adaptable rider.
Adept over gravel and looser surfaces as well as the straight and narrow, the 7050 aluminium Ritchey Ergomax drop bar features a 10mm rise at the clamping area to keep you riding in a comfortable, upright position, while the short 128mm drop keeps your weight a little further back for increased grip on both wheels. With the 4-degree backsweep on the Ritchey WCS Ergomax handlebar offers you better weight distribution from your arms and wrists and a more natural position is achieved. Keeping the comfort levels high, the drops provide a 12-degree flare, enhancing steadiness when you need to crank up to speed or dive into a bend. Ideal for the versatile rider, this WCS multi-surface drop handlebar points you in the right direction when it comes to comfortable and composed steering. Designed to enhance control and comfort when riding along loose surfaces, the ErgoMax is ideal for a gravel bike since it places the hands in a wider, more stable position while in the drops. The ErgoMax is just as perfectly situated on road bikes that are built for endurance, its ergonomics delivering unparalleled comfort.
