Easton road bars EC90 carbon drop & reach?

[Kwalters]

Anyone riding these, and would you be willing to measure the
drop and reach? Couldn't find on Easton's web site, and my
hometown is too small for the lbss to carry them.

Thanks. Ken

As best as I can measure, My EC90s have a 105mm reach and
140mm drop. Hope this helps.

No help on the Easton bars, but Harris Cyclery has the QBP
(Quality Bicycle Products) catalog on its website. QBP lists
the drop and reach for the handlebars it sells. QBP does not
sell Easton though.

The EC90 doesn't work with DA10, as the levers are designed
to sit high on the bar, and the EC90 bends inwards at a
level that is high enough for mounting, moving the brake
reach to an awkward position.

I'm using the EC90 with DA 10 levers, works fine. I don't
have my levers in an extremely high position, but the bottom
of the lever is about 1/2" above a straight-edge held up
against the bottom of the drops. They could go quite a bit
higher, before interfering with the next bend in the bars.

The one thing I don't like about the shape of the EC90 is
the short drop section. Would be nice if the drops extended
back another 1/2" or so.
