Deda Alanera RS Road Handlebars with Aerodynamic Design & Internal Cable Routing

The Deda Alanera RS Handlebars set a new standard for road cycling components, expertly blending aerodynamic innovation with rider comfort and adjustability. Designed for both professional cyclists and passionate enthusiasts, these handlebars enable a superior riding experience by enhancing control, reducing drag, and offering seamless integration with advanced bike accessories. Engineered with precision and tested rigorously, the Alanera RS builds upon a rich heritage of success, including victories at the Tour de France, to push performance boundaries even further.

Featuring the revolutionary RHM-EVO shape, the Alanera RS offers a 120 mm more compact drop that allows riders to sustain a low, aerodynamic position comfortably for longer rides. Its ergonomic design at the top enhances grip and reduces fatigue, while the refined aero cross-section improves wind resistance. Crafted from UD full carbon, this lightweight handlebar is 6% lighter than its predecessor, ensuring faster acceleration and improved handling. Additionally, the clean internal cable routing system keeps cables hidden within the frame, contributing to a sleek look and minimizing maintenance complexity.

Available in 21 size combinations to suit a variety of rider preferences and bike setups, the Alanera RS provides versatility and precision fit. Special headset spacers allow for easy adjustment without cable removal, and the 6-degree flare enhances control and comfort, especially when riding in the drops. Included accessories such as the aero top cap, headset spacers, DCR top cover, and Garmin-compatible bike mount make this handlebar a complete solution for riders seeking performance and convenience.
