The further you go on gravel, the further you’ll want to go. These compact aero bars get you into a streamlined position for extra speed and comfort over distance. “They’re great for bike-packing, too,” says Victor Momsen from Two Wheels Trading, the agents for Profile Designs in South Africa. “And especially for long-distance races like the Munga, when you need to cover ground efficiently.”
