"For their first significant venture outside of wheels, Reserve focused on creating a product with world-tour-level performance. The goal was to create an ultra-light, aerodynamic, one-piece handlebar, which they accomplished with the RD1. Backed by Reserve's carbon technology and layup process, the RD1 delivers both in performance and strength. The bars have no rider weight limit across all sizes and come with a lifetime warranty."
"To save weight, Reserve also limits the amount of tape area. Tape is only used in the critical areas of the bar, which also enhances aero performance. The RD1s are designed for a standard 1 ⅛" steer tube and feature integrated cable routing. Each set of bars includes a headset-bearing cover compatible with the Acros ICR headset with a 52mm upper bearing. They also created spacers and an integrated computer mount."
Reserve introduced the RD1 as an ultra-light, aerodynamic one-piece handlebar and stem targeted at world-tour-level performance. The RD1 uses Reserve's carbon technology and optimized layup to balance strength and low weight without a rider weight limit and includes a lifetime warranty. The one-piece construction enables cohesive carbon layup and aerodynamic benefits. Tape coverage is minimized to reduce weight and improve aero performance. The bars fit a standard 1 ⅛" steer tube, feature integrated cable routing, and ship with an Acros ICR-compatible headset-bearing cover (52mm upper bearing), spacers, and an integrated computer mount. Twelve configurations cover select widths (36–42mm) and stem lengths (80–120mm).
