  • Compact Bend: The Highway One bar has a “compact bend” for easier transition to the drops and helpful for less flexible riders than “traditional” drop bars. Compact drop bars also integrate better with the hood shape of modern road brake levers. Suited for road race bikes, touring bikes, fixed gear bicycles, CX bikes and gravel bikes.
  • Durable and Lightweight: Our road bike handlebars are designed to be highly durable and resistant to wear and tear. This ensures that you can enjoy your ride for a long time without having to worry about replacing your handlebar. Constructed of lightweight 6061-T12 Aluminum to be both stiff and light.
  • Suited for New and Vintage Road Bikes: The stem clamp area has a 26.0mm outside diameter (fits older bicycle stems with the old 26.0mm clamps found on most pre-2006 road bikes) This bike handlebar is offered in polished black or harder-to-find silver finish.
  • Increased Safety: This roadbike handlebar’s ergonomics helps cyclists maintain a more upright and comfortable riding position than “traditional” or “anatomic” drop bars, reducing the risk of fatigue-induced accidents. Short 75mm reach makes the brake levers easier to reach than with traditional bend drop bars. The hooks have a shallow 136mm drop makes it easier to use the lower part of the bar.

Customer Questions & Answers

  • Question: What is the width of the Soma Fabrications Hwy One Compact Drop Bar?

    Answer: The Soma Fabrications Hwy One Compact Drop Bar has a width of 42cm. This measurement is ideal for road biking, providing an optimal balance between aerodynamics and comfort. A handlebar width of 42cm suits most riders, allowing for an efficient and natural hand positioning during rides. Whether you're tackling long distances or navigating the urban terrain, this drop bar is crafted to enhance your cycling experience by reducing wind resistance and improving grip.
  • Question: What material is the Soma Hwy One Drop Bar made from?

    Answer: The Soma Fabrications Hwy One Drop Bar is constructed from aluminum, which ensures a lightweight yet strong design. This material is favored in cycling components because it offers a great strength-to-weight ratio, essential for road cycling where every gram counts. Additionally, aluminum is resistant to corrosion, which increases the longevity of the handlebar. This makes it suitable for various weather conditions, whether you're riding in sunshine or rain, ensuring consistent performance.
  • Question: Can I use the Soma Hwy One Compact Drop Bar with any bike?

    Answer: While the Soma Hwy One Compact Drop Bar is designed primarily for road bikes, it can be installed on other types of bikes provided they have a compatible 26mm clamp size. Proper compatibility is crucial for overall performance and safety. Before making the switch, check the specifications of your current handlebar and ensure that your bike's frame and stem can accommodate the drop bar. This versatility makes it a great option for cyclists looking to customize their riding experience.
  • Question: What are the benefits of using a compact drop bar?

    Answer: The compact design of the Soma Hwy One Drop Bar provides several benefits, particularly for road cyclists. It allows for a lower hand position that enhances aerodynamics and reduces wind resistance. Moreover, the shorter reach of compact drop bars offers greater comfort for a range of riders, especially those with smaller frames. This design is particularly useful during long rides, reducing fatigue and helping maintain better posture on the bike. Switching to a compact drop bar can significantly improve your riding efficiency.
  • Question: Is the Soma Hwy One Drop Bar adjustable?

    Answer: The Soma Hwy One Drop Bar is not adjustable as it comes in a fixed design. However, it is available in various widths and styles to suit different riding preferences and body types. Riders should select a width that matches their shoulder width to ensure comfort. While you can't adjust the bar itself, fine-tuning your bike's setup, such as adjusting your stem height and saddle position, can create a more personalized fit, improving overall ride quality.
  • Question: What is the clamp diameter for the Soma Fabrications Hwy One Drop Bar?

    Answer: The clamp diameter for the Soma Fabrications Hwy One Drop Bar is 26mm. This standard size is compatible with a wide range of road bike stems. It's important that your bike's stem matches this diameter for proper installation. Choosing the right clamp size will not only ensure a secure fit but also enhance the overall performance of your bike. If you're upgrading your handlebars, double-checking this specification can help you avoid compatibility issues.
  • Question: How does the Soma Hwy One Drop Bar affect my riding position?

    Answer: The Soma Hwy One Drop Bar promotes a more aerodynamic riding position, which is essential for road cycling. Its compact design allows for a lower hand position, which can help reduce drag. Riders often find that this setup encourages a more aggressive riding posture that can improve speed on flat roads. Additionally, for those who often ride at high speeds or in competitive settings, this bar can be a game-changer in cutting through the air efficiently.
  • Question: What kinds of grips work best with the Soma Hwy One Drop Bar?

    Answer: When choosing grips for the Soma Hwy One Drop Bar, it's best to opt for lightweight tape or ergonomic grips that promote comfort. Cork tape is a popular choice among cyclists as it provides good shock absorption, while rubber grips can offer a firmer handle in wet conditions. Ultimately, the right grips will depend on your riding style and personal preference. Experimenting with different options can lead to a more enjoyable ride tailored to your comfort needs.
  • Question: Can I install the Soma Hwy One Drop Bar myself?

    Answer: Yes, you can install the Soma Hwy One Drop Bar yourself if you have basic bike maintenance skills and the right tools. Simply ensure you have a compatible 26mm stem and the appropriate tools to loosen and tighten the clamp. Following a reliable bike maintenance guide can help you through the installation process. Doing the work yourself not only saves time but also gives you insight into your bike's mechanics, allowing you to maintain it more effectively.
