Best Aerobars for the money? - Triathlon Week

Hello,

This was my first season of doing tris. i bought a felt f60 and rode this
season without aerobars. i am looking around to find a decent relatively
inexpensive set of aero bars and i was wonder what you guys recommend.

Thanks,

Rob

I've used the Syntace C2 clip-on bar for years. It is light and fairly
inexpensive.

Look at the Profile Design AirStrykes. The arm pads flip up out of the
way so you get the best of both worlds. Expect to pay $90-$100.

Here is another vote for the Syntace C2 if you are looking for bargain.
You can clip them on any regular round bar set you already have
installed and the armrests adjust according to how wide your shoulders
are. The only downside will be that you need to decide on the length
because you will not be cutting them to size like the profile bars. The
pads are the best around, much better than Profile.

I have tried Profile carbon, Vision, VisionTech and Scott aero bars and
I can tell you that the Syntace C2's are the most comfortable aero bars
I have ever used.

Cheers,

Michael
