Ritchey Comp Buzzard Bars

With its wings spreading wide and rising high, the Ritchey Comp Buzzard handlebar embodies the adventurous spirit of the Ritchey Comp Kyote bar and takes it to another level – delivering a true all-day, off-road touring and bikepacking bar loaded with comfortable and practical features.

Rising above similar adventure bars on the market, the Comp Buzzard features a 70mm flat rise, which inspires a more upright riding position for endless comfort when touring or bikepacking – especially on bikes with a lower stack height. Along with a modest reach, the Buzzard is ideal for those of us eager to ride in a comfortable position that takes pressure off the wrists and allows settling back and into the bike, rather than hunching over in an aggressive and non-sustainable angle.

The Buzzard’s comfort is well complemented by carefully considered practical features. Its liberal 820mm width ensures plenty of control when the rough road gets rougher, its rise situates your line of sight to better see what’s ahead, and the wide center section allows you to fasten all sorts of bags and accessories needed for your lengthy escapes. On top of all that, its low price will save you money that you can instead use for a celebratory coffee when your ride has come to an end.

The true calling of the Buzzard is to seek rides that float over woodland, deserts, mountains, or anywhere you want to escape to with ease and grace – be it joyfully meandering endless trails all day or tackling that 1000-kilometer bikepacking event you’ve been contemplating.

The Buzzard isn’t a bar for wannabees – it’s a bar for ‘where-do-you-wannabees?’.
