Bontrager Aeolus RSL VR-C 400 mm x 100 mm Integrated Handlebar

Bontrager Aeolus RSL VR-C: integrated cockpit, performance and aerodynamics

The Bontrager Aeolus RSL VR-C is an integrated handlebar and stem designed for high-performance road bikes. Its one-piece OCLV carbon construction combines low weight, stiffness and compliance, while the aerodynamic design helps reduce drag and keeps the cockpit clean and streamlined.

OCLV carbon construction

Bontrager's OCLV Carbon technology delivers a lightweight, durable carbon structure designed to provide precise handling. By integrating the handlebar and stem, the design eliminates the traditional junction between the two components, creating a sleek and aerodynamic solution.

Integrated cable routing and Blendr compatibility

The internal cable management system keeps cables protected and out of sight, contributing to a clean cockpit and improved aerodynamic integration. The system securely holds the cables in place using an M4 hex bolt.

The handlebar is also compatible with the Blendr system, allowing seamless integration of accessories such as Bontrager Ion lights and Garmin cycling computers. Blendr Mono and Duo bases with their respective mounts are included.

Variable Radius Compact (VR-C) geometry

The VR-C (Variable Radius Compact) shape is designed to provide an ergonomic grip and smooth transitions between the tops and drops. Its 100 mm reach and 124 mm drop support an efficient and versatile riding position, ideal for sporty road cycling.
