As part of the process to pimp my Scott Addict R3 for triathlon, I had a set of Profile Design T3+ Aerobars fitted by Kent Horner as part of my first-class bike-fitting at Westlake Cycle Lab.
From the manufacturer:
- Multi-position drop bend extensions suitable for triathlon and time trial.
- Aluminium extensions and forged brackets.
- Injection moulded F-19 length, width, and rotationally adjustable autonomic armrests.
- Equipped with “J2” Brackets for an adjustable lower arm position.
- Clamp fits 26mm & 31.8mm bars.
Testament to a great product and Kent’s expert fitting, I have found the bars to more comfortable than expected on my training rides, and from the first race completed, the Totalsports Terra Firma 2012, to the big race, IronMan South Africa 2012, they have continued to perform.
They are easy to remove and refit when needed, for instance when racing in a draft-legal triathlon (when extensions such as these are illegal).
