It has been designed to minimize air resistance and provide a more ergonomic and comfortable position. More aerodynamic, lighter and comfortable than the previous version. The Superzero handlebar with the exclusive RS version. The combination with the handlebar delivers the lightest aero kit on the market. Compared to the standard version, the stem features special titanium screws with black PVD finish. The stem finish perfectly matches the new Superzero RS handlebar. The Superzero stem in the exclusive RS finish. An exclusive and elegant finish gives the RS series a unique stylish touch. The extreme lightness is the key value of this Deda Elementi series, achieved thanks to a minimal and functional design. The application of the best materials and advanced manufacturing process to deliver the lightest aero kit. It’s 3D forged from AL2014 alloy, and my 110mm, 82-degree example weighs 146g with all the hardware.The RS series represents the most innovative and technological production from Deda Elementi. The Superzero stem’s trapezoid shape is an inverted triangle that increases in diameter before meeting the bar, which is held by a two-part clamp with two 4mm chromoly steel hex bolts on each vertical element.
Electronic shifting users are less affected. Alternatively, you could route the cables externally, although that would alter the bar’s teardrop profile. Guiding the inner cables through needs some patience, and you’ll want to feed the outer casing in from the longer end, whether checking length or finally fitting, as the aluminium hole edges, although filed smooth, do shave off some of the casing.įor the same reason, it pays to ensure the casing entering near the stem is securely taped in place to prevent abrasion from normal bar movement. The openings aren’t really angled, so the cables do create small bulges where they enter and exit the bar, but if taped with cushioned tape, they’re hardly noticeable. Internal cable routing is minimal, with two 13mm diameter holes per side drilled 78mm apart within small depressions on the underside of the bar. Their additional width in the bends creates useful support for your palms when resting on the hoods. The central round portion of the tops is 31.7mm in diameter, enlarging to a teardrop shape that tapers in depth and width towards the gentle bend. The drops are in Deda’s Rapid Hand Movement (RHM) design a shallow, compact drop with an ergonomic and flowing shape that allows a range of comfortable positions for all hand sizes.
The broad tops make for a comfortable hand hold, and the RHM drop is one of my favourites
