Roman GłogulskiEnve now offers an innovative one-piece handlebar with the SES AR stem. This groundbreaking design provides excellent integration and weight savings, making it the perfect choice for road cyclists seeking a more aerodynamic and efficient solution.
If you need to upgrade the handlebar on your Enve IN-route compatible frame, you can now purchase this product directly from Enve. The SES AR One-Piece handlebar offers the same functionality and ergonomics as the previous version, but now you can choose from 20 different variations to customize the handlebar to your individual preferences.
The smallest option is a 90mm stem paired with a 38cm handlebar, and the options increase in size from there. Available widths include 38, 40, 42, and 44cm, and each width has different stem lengths ranging from 90 to 130mm. If you require custom sizes, you can place an order for personalized production.
The SES AR One-Piece handlebar weighs between 330 and 360 grams, depending on the size. This translates to a weight savings of approximately 85 grams compared to the previous version, resulting in improved performance and riding comfort.
An interesting addition to this design is the mounting for a front fairing. In the past, such mounting availability was limited, but now it is included in the purchase price. Along with the handlebar, you will also receive special IN-Route shims and a “bypass” shim, which allows for external cable routing and configuration testing before internal cable routing.
Although dedicated Enve IN-route compatible frames are currently a small group, Enve ensures that many other bicycle models with a similar cable system will be compatible with the new SES AR One-Piece handlebar after minor modifications. For example, the handlebar is compatible with the Colnago V4Rs model after replacing the upper bearing cover with a dedicated Enve component.
The purchase of the SES AR One-Piece handlebar may be more expensive compared to traditional solutions, but it is worth investing in this innovative design that offers significant weight and aerodynamic benefits. This will allow you to enjoy a more comfortable and efficient ride on your road bike.
