FSA Omega Alloy Compact Road Bicycle Handlebar Review

Progressive arthritis in the hip means riding in the drops was getting more and more uncomfortable. I switched from the standard FSA Omega bars to these Omega Compact bars and the difference is striking. Now I find myself riding in the drops much longer than before the switch. As an added bonus, these bars make it easier to brake and shift as my STI levers are now closer.
Only word of caution is that the bar ends for the Compact are longer than the original bars so I occasionally whack my knees on the bar ends when out of the saddle. I hacksawed 3/4 of an inch off each bar end and that's improved things.

FSA K-Force Carbon Compact Road Handlebar Review

I replaced the ergo bar on my Cannondale CAAD9 with this bar. Now I find myself spending more time in the drops than before. The carbon takes a lot of the buzz out of the road feel, so there's no hand numbness. I have the brake hoods mounted high on the roughed-up section of the bends, but unlike another reviewer I don't find the position wrong. It's exactly right and very comfortable when riding the hoods. I got the 42 mm size, which is 40 mm at the hoods. Mine weighed in at 217 g. It takes my Syntace C2 clip-on aero bar without a hassle. A definite improvement over my stock aluminum bar.

FSA Wing Pro Alloy Compact Road Bicycle Handlebar Review

Light weight, sturdy, and a great alternative to carbon. Only thing that could make it better would be an even wider flat area on top, but still way more comfortable than standard round bars.
