Victor Campenaerts is not fully in peace with
UCI’s decision to make a rule banning inward-facing brake levers in 2024 and he believes riders will simply use loopholes to achieve a similar position with flared bars, often used in beach races.
"It's quite difficult. Because the rules are very unclear," said Campenaerts to Cyclingnews ahead of Lotto-Dstny’s 2024 team presentation. "It seems like if you want to, you can ride with beach race handlebars and still ride with your brake levers like this. It makes no sense at all."
