$1200 for a 380g bar that only fits Enve cable routing seems optimistic.

They're high. Hopefully zero people buy the AR version and they lower prices by the time the aero version comes.

It's a good looking bar. Appreciate the large choice of sizes. I like the flare and the 38/120 would be perfect. Weight isn't the greatest. But holy hell that price. Might as well buy 2 Roval cockpits for the same price.

If only roval started making decent bars without brake hoses dangling ffs...they really can't make bars for shit (starting from the alpinist and the rapide now). It's so ugly they photshopped the hoses out of the bike pics online.

OT: what are viable decent solutions integrated bars? Only EXS out there as a decent alternative? Darimo not so trustworthy lately.

They've launched with outrageous pricing (£1300) and the option of 20 sizes + custom sizing but still didn't put down anywhere if they measure these bars at the hoods or the drops :noidea:

Is this not what you mean? It was on the product specs tab on the page?

Exactly that. Should have checked with Enve as I only looked at the UK distributor's page :beerchug:

Are the 2cm of exposed brake hose really that much of an issue? Just curious. I know fully internal looks a little better but I've never really seen an issue with the Roval bars and cables. I doubt it's causing any aero drag and it actually helps when flying and you can remove the bars. Certainly wouldn't hold me back from buying, especially at half the price of these.

I truly wonder how they came up with the price. Is it cost + markup, or is it "what the market will bear"? In either case, it takes some doing to shade Pinarello/Most, but by god they've done it.
