SimWorks by Nitto Ramble Bar|A Freethinking Adventure Bar Made for Taking the Long Way
Load up a large bag and turn onto any road that catches your eye. A unique handlebar designed to make spontaneous adventures even more enjoyable.
The Ramble Bar was created through a collaboration between SimWorks and Golden Pliers, a bicycle shop based in Portland, USA. True to its name, it was developed for a free and unhurried style of riding filled with wandering, exploring, and unexpected detours.
Its defining features are the dramatic 65° backsweep and distinctive shape designed with luggage carrying in mind. It creates a comfortable riding position while providing ample space for securely mounting a large front bag.
With a total width of 710mm and a generous 160mm control zone, the bar offers plenty of room to adjust your hand position. From everyday city riding to bikepacking and touring, it helps maintain a natural posture during longer rides while reducing strain on the shoulders and wrists.
It can also be installed in the conventional rise position or flipped to create a negative-drop setup. This versatility allows you to tailor the bar to your bike, riding style, and intended use.

Its unusual shape may be surprising at first glance, but once you place your hands on it, the reasoning behind the design quickly becomes clear.
It pairs especially well with touring and commuter bikes carrying a front bag, providing a natural riding position without creating unnecessary interference around the luggage. The 65° sweep is far more comfortable than its dramatic appearance might suggest, helping the shoulders and wrists remain relaxed during longer rides.
The Ramble Bar brings together the playful imagination of SimWorks and thoughtful everyday practicality. It is well worth trying for riders who enjoy taking things at their own pace, exploring without a fixed route, or building a bike around a versatile bikepacking setup.
💬 STAFF REVIEW
The extended center section pairs exceptionally well with handlebar bags, providing plenty of room for a stable and practical setup.
Wrap the curved sections with bar tape and the Ramble Bar can also be used as a comfortable multi-position handlebar.
