What is the drop and reach for these handlebars?

The drop measured from the centerline of the hood area of the bar to the centerline of the drop bar is 135mm. But note the bar also drops about 20mm from the stem. I hope this helps.

I ordered 440mm, but receiced 420mm. They were marked 440, however they measured 420. The size turned out ok and I did not return them. If you really want 440mm be sure they get measured prior to shipping as the packaging designation etc

The distance from the handle bar to the drops is about 4.5 inch and the reach where you place your hands on the drops is about 5 inch. When I first saw this handle bar I thought it was narrow and small, but once I installed it on my bike it looked good; but best of all, it provides a very comfortable ride and a very nice feeling on your hands as you ride.

For the bar I purchased, 100mm or about 4 inches represents the rise of the handlebar from the center, pinch attachment to the height of the bars at the grips. 50mm must be an optional handlebar configuration where the rise is closer to 2 inches.

Monti, The FULL drop, from the very top of the mounting bracket to the bottom of the bottom step looks to be 23.5 inches. From the top step to the bottom step is 19". I have them mounted on a 2002 Springdale TT and when installed there is a 9.5 in step down from the last step to the ground. I hope one of those measurements helps to answer your question!

You have to cut off your old grips. Then really oil up these to get them on your handle bars. And they really work

There are 2 screws located along the bottom of the yolk that holds the handlebars. The handlebar location works for us great right out of the box.

Sorry the rise is the way the handle bar is made. It brings the handle bar up closer to you . Your arm reach. They will not fit on some mountain bikes. Thanks

It boils down to how long the grip is that covers the handle bar. I ordered xl but I ended up getting small. By time I realized it, it was too late. Still usable I just have to adjust my grip shifters. If I can help any other way let me know. Can even provide pics if needed. They are deffinately worth the money though.

Most handlebars are measured from center to center. In the case of the Avenir 200 flat top, that distance is 420 millimeters. Good width for most people. Also, more comfortable on long rides.

it really depends on how you want to mount them. I move my grips in on both sides of the handlebars just enough to bolts the units to the bars. You'll need to cut the opening in the ends of your grips tho,. If you're more fastidious, you'll want a bar-end kit and these do not come with that. Some motorcycles come with pre-tapped handlebar ends to make the process easier.

They're about 4-5 inches to the bend, and 6 inches to the bar tips. I'd recommend padded grip tape if you live anywhere cold. The smooth metal is slick but gets freezing in the breeze :)

These handlebars fit a 25.4mm clamp on your stem. The other popular size is a 31.8mm clamp. So make sure you have 25.4mm bars, or buy a new stem. But you have a bigger issue. I think a windsor tourist comes with drops. You are going to need all new brake levers and shifters, as this bar is a replacement for straight bar or mountain biking handlebars. (It's an AWESOME handlebar for touring, however.)

There is a quick-release on the handlebar stem. It can be raised but not lowered from the original factory assembly

With a ruler measure the thickness top to bottom of the area where you want to install the handlebar? 31.8mm = approx. 1.25".

In very layman's terms, its the amount of vertical rise you will get compared to a perfectly straight bar handlebar - ie this bar will move you 5.5 inches more upright. 5.5 inches is a LOT of rise even though it doesn't sound like much - a lot more than I originally anticipated. most Mountain bikes are like an inch or less, and most comfort bikes have maybe 2 or 3 inches. This bar will get you sitting very upright.

I weighed them when I received them and compared the weight with the old handlebars I removed, but I didn't write the numbers down and they are now mounted so I don't know. As I recall, these new bars were a little lighter than the aluminum bars I removed. Sorry.

I use it on my road bike with drops,from the forward top of the handlebars on either side of the gooseneck to the bag is exactly 2" of clearance on my bike,let me know if you need any other info.

Ooooo!!! I like your bike!!! I have what I believe to be a very common setup. I think my bar is 1". The unit fits my bar but the bike shop took it off when I took it in for servicing and I havent bothered to put it back on. Have just ordered more comfortable grips so the cruise probably wont be missed.
