Product Description
Zipp Service Course SL-88 Handlebars High Polish Black 31.8mm Clamp All Sizes
Zipp is an American company that is best known for designing, manufacturing, and marketing carbon-composite bicycle wheels for road cycling, triathlons, track racing, and mountain biking.
The company's product range also includes handlebars, stems, seat posts, tires, inner tubes, handlebar tape, and bags.
In 1988, the company was founded by motorsports engineer Leigh Sargent and released its first carbon fiber disc wheel.
Zipp was acquired by bicycle component manufacturer Sram in November 2007. In October 2010, Zipp relocated from its original design and manufacturing facility in Speedway, Indiana to an expanded site in Indianapolis.
The company was first to market with dimpled discs and rims (they also own the patent), to induce boundary layer turbulence and prevent detached airflow in crosswinds.
Zipp has done pioneering research in aerodynamics, using various high tech wind tunnels, and has published advanced papers in this area.
The company was also the first to produce disc wheels, deep section rims, and cranksets using carbon fiber technology.
Zipp Service Course SL-88 Handlebars High Polish Black 31.8mm Clamp All Sizes
Traditional road racer’s bar, the Service Course SL-88 provides for a “long-and-low” position on the bike.
The ends of the drops provide a horizontal flat position for the rider to rest straight down upon.
This versatility comes from the bar’s longer 88mm reach (the horizontal distance from the bar’s stem clamp area to centre of the brake perch) and deeper 130mm drop (vertical distance from bar’s stem clamp area to bottom of drops).
In addition, the bar’s 14° ramp angle provides a smooth transition to the brake hoods for a comfortable ergonomic hand position on the hoods.

Drops are angled outward by 3 degrees to reduce wrist strain.
