There are a number of ways to control the shifting of the Rohloff hub with drop bars, please click here for some of the options

On the Torro we have opted for the Van Nicholas Rohloff specific bars, but any of the other options are available.

​

Bars - the Van Nicholas divisible drop handlebar is especially designed for the Rohloff twist shifter. By making the handlebar divisible, the Rohloff shifter can be easily mounted. Integrated reinforcing ribs allow a brake cable to run neatly beneath the shifter. Made from Alloy 6061 with a sandblasted black anodized finish. This bar has a clamp diameter of 31.8mm and is available in 40, 42 and 44cm widths. The width is measured CTC. The design incorporates a Shallow bend with a low 133mm Drop and 85mm Reach, allowing for an easy low hand placement and improved comfort. There is also a 8° flared option

​

Stem - The Van Nicholas divisible bars have to be paired with the Van Nicholas stem. A 3D forged feather light weight stem with a two pieces faceplate, for passionate and professional riders. Made from Alloy 7050 with a sandblasted black anodized finish. This stem has a 31.8mm clamp diameter and is available in 70, 80, 90, 100, 110 and 120mm lengths. The design incorporates +7°/-7° Rise. Titanium bolts with 4mm hex head.

​

Bar tape - The Brooks microfibre tape is our go to bar tape for all of our drop bars. If you’d like even more comfort then we can recommend the Ergon gravel tape as an upgrade.​

​

Shifter - Our preferred choice is the proved Rohloff grippy rubber twist shifter, we've tried a few but we keep coming back to Rohloff's own
