Towel Rack Bar

The Towel Rack is designed specifically for bikepackers and touring cyclists who need extra room to mount large handlebar bags or baskets. The width ensures your gear doesn't interfere with your hand placement or steering control.

It depends on your stem's clamp diameter. This bar requires a 26.0 mm clamp, which is a common size for classic or touring-style stems, but it will not fit modern 31.8 mm stems without a shim.

The shorter reach and shallower drops make the bar more accessible and comfortable for long days in the saddle. By reducing the distance you have to stretch to reach the hoods or drops, it encourages a more upright, stable position that is less fatiguing on gravel or long tours.

The significant 25-degree flare widens the drops, providing increased leverage and stability when you are riding on technical terrain or descending with a loaded bike. It also creates a more natural, ergonomic wrist angle compared to traditional road bars.

Not really. While it is made from durable 7075 aluminum, its extreme width and geometry are optimized for touring, gravel, and bikepacking comfort rather than the aerodynamic, tucked-in position required for road racing.
