Cinelli Pista Handlebar

No, this bar is specifically engineered for track cycling and velodrome use. Its aggressive drop and reach geometry are designed for high-intensity, fixed-gear track riding and are not optimized for the comfort or varied hand positions required for road cycling or commuting.

The Cinelli Pista Track Drop Handlebar features a 31.8mm clamp diameter, which is the standard size for most modern track stems.

With a 173mm drop and 109mm reach, this bar is significantly deeper and longer than a typical road handlebar. This geometry is designed to lock you into an aggressive, aerodynamic position essential for sprinting and maintaining speed on the track.

The 6061-T6 aluminum provides an excellent balance of stiffness and durability, which is critical for track cycling where power transfer is paramount. The double-butted construction helps keep the weight down while maintaining structural integrity under the high stress of track racing.

Yes, the shot-peened finish increases the surface hardness and fatigue resistance of the aluminum, making the bar more durable against the rigors of track use. The anodizing adds a layer of corrosion resistance, ensuring the finish stays clean and protected over time.
