Description
NITTO's famous Mod 177 is a drop bar that is known and loved around the world as the Noodle Bar, a bar shape that even riders who already love drop bars will fall in love with. It is an excellent drop bar that can even capture the hearts of riders who think that drop bars are a bit too much for them.
The Noodle Bar may be the most comfortable drop bar for any cyclist. Its shaping is such that the flat part at the top sweeps back slightly toward the rider, bringing the bar closer, and the drop (bottom) flares out 4°. But the important part is the ramp just behind the bar, where the brake lever fits. Many riders place their hands there, and if the slope is too steep, there is no support and the hands can slide forward or down. Most bar slopes are about 24 to 32 degrees, but the Noodle Bar's slope is 15 degrees so that if you tilt the bar properly, the already flat 15 degree slope becomes 5 degrees so that the end is about 10 degrees downward, so even if your hands are sweaty, you won't slip down from there! .
We do not recommend that this noodle bar be as wide as your shoulder width, as is the usual choice for handlebars. A suitable size for most people would be a bar size wider than shoulder width.
