Ritchey WCS Beacon Blatte 44 handlebars

Description

With Ritchey WCS Beacon Blatte 44 handlebars, your hands stay calm even when gravel turns into a broken track. On long days in the saddle, you’ll appreciate the stability, comfort, and extra room for gear.

Main benefits

The pronounced widening of the drops with a 36° flare boosts confidence off-road and puts your hands in a more natural position. As a result, the bike feels steadier even on fast descents.

The geometry with an 80 mm drop supports a comfortable yet still sporty grip and makes it easier to switch hand positions. The smooth transition between grips helps relieve your wrists on long routes.

More space between the drops makes it easier to use a handlebar bag when bikepacking. Handling stays predictable even with loaded gear.

The WCS line focuses on durable construction for gravel and adventure touring. In practice, that means stable bike tracking and more precise cornering control.

Technical specifications

The width at the bottom of the bend is 44 cm.

The stem clamp diameter is 31.8 mm.

The handlebars are made from 7050 aluminum alloy and come in black.

The geometry includes a 65 mm reach, 4.5° backsweep, and 6° outsweep.

Conclusion

Ritchey WCS Beacon Blatte 44 are gravel handlebars that make sense if you want a confident grip, room for bags, and comfort without unnecessary compromises. The shape is designed for long rides, gravel roads, and a loaded bike.

Compatibility with Shimano EW-RS910 makes it easier to cleanly integrate selected components into the cockpit. The result is uncluttered control and ergonomics that won’t hold you back over the next miles.
