3T Rotundo Limited Handlebars
There's a reason why, even with all the ergonomic developments of shaped handlebars, the classic, enduring bend of the 3T Rotundo Limited bars will always appeal to many of us two-wheel enthusiasts. Not only is it a classic aesthetic, but it also allows for individualized preference of hand placement. The Rotundo isn't prescriptive about where you place your hands; it lets you choose. While this has obvious benefits for sprinting, it's also a feature that accommodates long rides where you spend a lot of time in the wind and, therefore, want to stay comfortable in the drops.
The Rotundo Limited bars are made from 3T's high-modulus carbon fiber. Chances are good that your fork and frame are made from a similar lightweight carbon, and these bars further complement the ride qualities that compelled you to choose carbon in the first place. The added cockpit stiffness doesn't come at the cost of comfort, though, as the bars' carbon absorbs fatigue-inducing road noise so you really can spend all day on the road. By varying the layup of the Rotundo Limited, the engineers at 3T managed to drop a claimed 10 additional grams compared to the carbon fiber Rotundo Team and 60 grams compared to the base Rotundo model.
The 3T Rotundo LTD Handlebars are available in three sizes, 40, 42, and 44 centimeters, in the color Gloss Black. 3T proscribes the use of clip-on bars and recommends a rider weight limit of 240 pounds for all of their equipment.
