Pros & Cons
Pros

The bars are more than thirty grams lighter than my old, already lite, compact alloy bars. Great, lightweight & comfortable carbon bars.
Big easy holes for cabling. Slide the brake outer sleeve on first, again from the center hole.
This is on a cannondale synapse endurance bike. I'm a 75 year old male cyclist who enjoy working on my bikes as much as riding them. Now this is a little early to give them 5 starts because durability is very important since it affects safety.
Cons
Design is trash and so is the quality. Ruined several feet of outers and scratched up the bars. Complete garbage. Started cracking at 3nm well before the recommended 5nm. Would not recommend.
I weight 180lb and on a medium effort crank they deflect an inch and a half at the drop compared to the stem. Bars have too much flex and will add about an inch or so to shifter placement. Carbon on the inside will tear any coated brake/derailleur cab... Read More
Highlights
Quality
Out of the box im happy with this product
I have rode over 100 miles and live the quality look
Didn’t bother with the internal routing at all
Price
Definitely not a bad deal at this price
Packaging/appearance

However you should be aware of some sizing peculiarities
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
First these tend to sit a little lower than standard bars because of how they are shaped
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Also since these bars flare out a bit at the drops where bar width is measured the top of the bar can feel a little more cramped than the same size in a traditional bar
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I compared my 420 aluminum bar to this one in a 420 and while the ends of the drops are the same the shifter hoods on the carbon bar are a full 25 mm closer to each other than when they are mounted on the aluminum bar
