FSA K-Wing AGX Carbon Handlebar Review - Aero, Ergonomic, and Adventure-Ready
"FSA's K-Wing AGX Carbon Handlebar sits squarely at the intersection of speed, control, and comfort across unpredictable terrain, bringing aerodynamic shaping, carbon tuning, and endurance-focused ergonomics into a clean, fully integrated package. At $336, it's not an impulse buy, but it's built for riders who want the performance of a race bar with the all-day comfort needed for gravel or adventure epics."
"FSA knows cockpit design - the company's DNA is rooted in years of pro-tour feedback and real-world endurance testing. We recently reviewed FSA's sister company's end bar, the Vision Metron 5D one-piece bar, and it's everything you'd want to round out a World Tour cockpit. The K-Wing AGX takes that experience and applies it to gravel: it's wider, more stable, and more forgiving than a road bar, yet still stiff enough for big in-the-saddle bar pulling efforts and standing climbs."
"The ovalized tops instantly feel natural in the hands. They're broad and slightly flattened, spreading pressure evenly and allowing for relaxed wrists during long stretches. The 12° flare gives just the right amount of control when descending loose switchbacks without making the hoods feel awkward. The bars feature a compact build, with a 76 mm reach and 115 mm drop, which keeps transitions smooth, quick, and comfortable, especially during long events where small movements make a significant difference in back and shoulder comfort."
FSA's K-Wing AGX Carbon Handlebar combines aerodynamic shaping, carbon layup tuning, and endurance-focused ergonomics for gravel and adventure riding. Priced at $336, the bar targets riders who want race-bar performance with all-day comfort for wider tires, rougher terrain, and long rides. The bar offers ovalized, flattened tops for even pressure distribution and relaxed wrists, a 12° flare for control on loose descents, and a compact 76 mm reach with 115 mm drop for smooth transitions. Full internal routing accommodates mechanical, electronic, and hydraulic systems and integrates with FSA's ACR cockpit ecosystem for hidden cables.
