Face it. Cowhorns are the redheaded stepchild of the bike business. The message from most companies is clear, “If you’re too cheap to buy our integrated bar, well then, just take this bit we’ve bought out of some factory’s stock line and put our sticker on.” But carbon base bars should be anything but an afterthought – it is, after all, the very foundation of your time trial cockpit.

 

It’s channeling your torque as you launch from the start house, supporting your weight as you slam over the potholes your tax dollars haven’t been fixing, and holding the brake levers you hope you won’t need in the next 40k. In short, your base bar has to be as stiff, strong and light as any road bar on the market – yet still slice the air with surgical precision.

 

The Vuka Bull isn’t just for the cheapskates – if you’re one of the riders for whom the for whom the “Praying Landis” 30º up aerobar position works you already know no integrated bar (not even ours) will get you to the bar angle you need without presenting too much surface area on the wing section. Hence the Vuka Bull. We’ve used the same exclusive carbon layup technology that’s made our Vuka Aero the only aerobar to pass the arduous DIN+ durability standard. And The Vuka Bull has the same slippery frontal area, internal cable routing and sculpted, Vuka end pods to put your hands in the most comfortable, controlling position in the business. It’s also got the wide center section of our SL drop bars so you have all the contact area and adjustability you need for clipping on your aerobars in the optimum position . And at just 195 grams, it’s the lightest full-aero carbon base bar on the market – at a price that’s still compatible with the most fiscally responsible souls on the time trial and tri circuits. No more afterthoughts.
