Product Description

Zipp Vuka Alumia Base Handlebar | 40cm | 31.8mm Clamp |  Bead Blast Black | 

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.

Every high-performance aero-cockpit begins with a great base bar.

The Vuka Alumina, crafted from 6066 series aluminum, offers superior aerodynamics and ergonomics at an affordable price.

The Vuka Alumina base bar delivers on a big challenge given to our engineers – create a high-performance aluminum base bar that’s sleek and light with the right amount of adjustability.

The Vuka Alumina base bar is sleek with clean internal cable routing for easy installation. Handgrips are angled upward by 5 degrees for a natural wrist position when climbing or sprinting.

The bar’s mounting area is 120mm wide to allow for an array of positions to accommodate many riding styles and body types.

The Vuka Alumina is compatible with all current drive-train systems and all plug-in style brake levers.

It’s optimized for use with the VukaClip but is compatible with most clip aerobars on the market.

The Vuka Alumina is lightweight at 250 grams has a 40cm (center-to-center) width and a 31.8mm clamp diameter.

Its bead blast black finish with gloss graphics mean the bar looks as smooth as it performs.
