Bontrager Elite VR-C Drop Handlebar

All-day comfort and race-ready versatility in one lightweight aluminium bar. The Bontrager Elite VR-C Drop Handlebar is built for road riders who want an ergonomic, confidence-inspiring hand position on the hoods and a realistic, usable drop section — without giving up the stiffness needed to sprint when it counts.

The VR-C (Variable Radius Compact) bend is the defining feature. By varying the radius through the curve rather than using a fixed arc, the bar creates a smooth, natural transition from the tops to the drops that puts your hands in an intuitive, comfortable position at every point in the bar. The compact geometry — 124mm drop and 100mm reach — keeps the drops close and accessible, making it an excellent choice for riders who find traditional drop bars uncomfortable or who want a more relaxed, endurance-oriented fit.

Custom-butted 7050 aluminium construction keeps weight low while maintaining the stiffness needed for confident cornering and powerful sprints. Laser-engraved reference markings take the guesswork out of brake lever positioning, and internal Di2-compatible cable routing keeps your cockpit clean on both electronic and mechanical setups. UCI compliant for competition use.

Available in 380mm, 400mm, 420mm, and 440mm widths.
