Just when you'd finally got your hands on every last component in super-cool stealthy black, Zipp goes and adds a line of silver-coloured Service Course products to its ranges.
Zipp has launched the so-old-it’s-new silver scheme across a number of its handlebar options, plus a stem and seatpost. This isn’t entirely new gear, but it is all proven, as well as being relatively affordable.
There’s not a lot more to say other than it's time to start thinking up your next colour scheme.

Silver Service Course 80 Ergo handlebar
The Service Course 80 Ergo is a bar made with weight, stiffness and comfort in mind.
There are also some recent updates to the product, Zipp says “the new Service Course 80 Ergo retains the same 80mm reach and 125mm drop of the existing Service Course 80 bars" but the new flattened bar top and a 3-degree backsweep put your wrists in a more natural and neutral position on the tops.
- 80mm reach and 125mm drop for a medium-high position
- Flat transition to hoods
- Di2 RS910 junction compatible

Silver Service Course 80 handlebar

- 80mm reach and 125mm drop
- £54 / $55 / € 61
