Product Information

Full details

The Deda Elementi Superzero RS Alloy handlebar is designed for road cyclists who demand a high-performance, stable, and comfortable ride. Its primary benefit is the RHM-EVO shape combined with a slight flare, offering excellent control on varied terrain and quick transitions between hand positions. A potential caveat is that the Internal Cable Routing (DCR) system requires compatible frames for a truly clean setup. Key features include lightweight 7050 alloy construction, ergonomic shaping, and integrated cable management.

Troubleshooting

Handlebar slips in stem clamp

Ensure the stem clamp area and handlebar are clean and free of grease. Re-torque stem bolts to the manufacturer's recommended specification (usually 5-6 Nm). Consider using carbon paste if the handlebar is carbon (though this model is alloy).

Difficulty routing cables internally (DCR)

Verify that both your frame and Deda stem are DCR compatible. Consult the Deda DCR installation guide or your frame manufacturer's instructions. Ensure no sharp bends are present in the cable path. Using a guide wire can assist in pulling cables through.

Brake/shifter levers do not mount securely

Confirm that your levers are designed for a 31.7mm clamp diameter. Some levers have adjustable clamp size collars; check your lever manual. Ensure mounting hardware is correctly installed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers excellent control on descents and technical terrain due to the flared drops.
  • Ergonomic RHM-EVO shape promotes a comfortable and efficient riding posture.
  • Internal cable routing contributes to a clean and aerodynamic cockpit.
  • Constructed from durable and lightweight 7050 alloy.
  • Available in a range of widths to fit various rider builds.

Cons

  • Internal cable routing is most effective with compatible frames, potentially limiting setup options.
  • The 6° flare might not be ideal for riders preferring a very narrow stance in the drops.
  • Weight, while competitive, may be slightly higher than some high-end carbon alternatives.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Ensure the handlebar clamp diameter (31.7mm) matches your stem. When installing, torque bolts to manufacturer specifications (typically 5-6 Nm for stem faceplate and lever clamps) to avoid damage. For Deda Internal Cable Routing (DCR), ensure your frame is designed to accept internal cabling through the stem and headset. Consult your frame manufacturer's documentation for specific DCR routing procedures.

Compatibility: This handlebar is compatible with standard 1 1/8" stems. It accommodates most standard brake and shifter levers. For full DCR integration, use with a compatible Deda stem and headset system is recommended.

Care: Clean the handlebar regularly with mild soap and water using a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish. Periodically check torque settings on stem bolts to ensure secure mounting.
