Verdict: A very affordable product to make your bikepacking expeditions more comfortable!
The Van Rysel Long-distance triathlon handlebar extensions are a product designed specifically for cyclists who want to improve their aerodynamics and endurance during long-distance events but are useful for bikepacking expeditions. These handlebar extensions are made by Van Rysel, a cycling brand owned by the French sports equipment retailer, Decathlon.
The handlebar extensions are designed to be mounted onto the existing handlebars of your bike, providing the rider with an aerodynamic, forward-leaning position that reduces wind resistance, give an alternative position for comfort, and allows for better speed and efficiency. They are made of lightweight, durable aluminium and feature a J-bend shape that allows for a comfortable hand position, even during extended periods of use.
One of the key features of these handlebar extensions is their adjustability. They can be easily customised to fit the specific needs of the rider, with options for adjusting the length, height, and angle of the extensions. This allows riders to find the optimal position for their body type and riding style, which can help to reduce fatigue and improve performance over long distances through marginal gains.
