Three rise options, one carbon layup, one width to cut to taste — that's the brief for Ritchey's SuperLogic Mountain Handlebar lineup. Ritchey expanded its top-tier SuperLogic family with these ultralight carbon handlebars offered in zero, 20mm, and 40mm rise options, giving cross-country and all-mountain riders a choice in how they set up their cockpit, whether they want a low, aggressive front end for climbing or added rise for long, rough descents. If you're chasing a low XC race position, the flat bar is the move. If you want a taller stack for longer days or rowdier terrain without swapping to a full enduro cockpit, the 20mm and 40mm risers cover that ground.

All three bars share a 760mm width with cut markers for precise trimming. The flat bar has 7° of backsweep, while the 20mm and 40mm rise options bump that to 8°, and all three use the same 5° upsweep and 31.8mm clamp diameter. The backsweep change isn't arbitrary — a more relaxed cockpit that comes with rise pairs naturally with the extra degree of sweep, so the bars feel right at the position riders actually run them. The 760mm starting width gives you room to trim down to 740mm, 720mm, or wherever your shoulders and trail preferences land.

Weight is where the SuperLogic name earns its keep. The zero-rise bar comes in at 155g, the 20mm at 170g, and the 40mm at 175g. Those are claimed numbers from Ritchey, but they line up with what you'd expect from their top-tier carbon construction — the SuperLogic tier sits above Ritchey's WCS line and uses higher-grade carbon fiber to drop grams while holding up to mountain bike loads. The 31.8mm clamp keeps these compatible with the vast majority of mountain stems on the market, so swapping into an existing cockpit is straightforward.... Read More
