Slightly heavier with less expressive graphics but all the same tube shaping, the Zipp XPLR drop handlebar is perfect for all-road riding, gravel, and whatever you want. It’s the gravel handlebar that doesn’t flare out your brake levers too much but still offers plenty of flare for the drops.

This is Zipps innovative all-road handlebar, the Service Course 70 XPLR. The bars moniker, XPLR, exemplifies the desire to explore the world with an expanded definition of cycling on a drop bar bicycle from paved roads onto gravel, mud, dirt, and even single track. The Service Course 70 XPLR helps you go faster by placing your body, starting with your hands, in an optimal comfort zone position for hours of rough riding over mixed terrain. Todays riders demand a few things out of their cockpit, whether they are doing a two-hour training ride from home or a 200-mile gravel adventure: comfort, control, and the ability to carry what they need. We met these needs by creating a bar with shallow and wide drops, specifically focusing on two crucial metricsoutsweep and flare. Outsweep is created by rotating the drop below the brake perch outward. Flare is created by rotating the entire drop above the brake perch outward.
