A women’s professional cyclist union has hit out at new rules that will require pro riders to use wider handlebars saying it “endanger cyclists”.
The Cyclists’ Alliance (TCA) has said changes announced by the governing body the UCI earlier this month that would require all handlebars to measure a minimum outside-to-outside width of 40cm, and an inside-to-inside width between the brake levers of 32cm, will “put riders at risk”.
