According to the product specialist
Pros
The high grade aluminium used in the construction gives light and stiff handlebars. |
With this handlebar, the shifters are a bit further away than with the Pro LT & PLT handlebars. This makes for a more sporty riding position. |
Compared to other Race & Performance handlebars, your shifters are still quite close. This gives you just that bit more comfort. |
The handlebar curve is a lot deeper, which allows you to adopt an aggressive and performance-oriented sitting position in the drop bars. |
This PLT handlebar is stiff and lightweight as it is made from double-butted aluminium. |
A higher degree of stiffness results in better handling than with a handlebar from a lower segment. |
The sitting position is quite sporty but there is also enough room to sit in a more comfortable position. |
By using 6061-T6 aluminium, the Bontrager Comp VR-S handlebar has a long lifespan. |
This handlebar has a comfortable handlebar shape, thanks to Bontrager's VR-S geometry. |
Cons
It is not possible to conceal the Di2 cables entirely internally with this handlebar. Only at the bottom of the handlebar are openings provided to connect the Di2 cable to the junction box. |
If less agile, the deep drop bars may be uncomfortable. |
For a truly sports orientated, deep sitting position the Pro Vibe handlebar is a better choice. |
The comfortable geometry of this handlebar makes it less suitable for the fastest riders who like to be as aerodynamic as possible. |
