So what is the thought behind not shipping aduro with UCI version, and not selling aduro as after market at this point?
Price. The Aduro would drive the price of the Three series higher. We wanted to keep the price as low as possible on one of the P5 versions. Since you need the Aduro bar for the "beard", we decided to make the UCI version available at the lower price.
The Audro, I'm sure, will be available as an aftermarket bar. However, it is a 3T product and we do not distribute 3T -- only "spec'd" equipment with our bikes -- so I am sure they will have it available in the future. I think it is more a matter of Cervélo having purchased all of the very first run of these bars since we cooperated with 3T in the design and it integrates so nicely with the P5.

3T Aura Pro

Also, as far as disc option, is there any benefit for Super 9 or Stinger disk vs say flat 900?
Sure. Probably. The claims on the Super 9 and Stinger are that they are faster wheels. I have no reason to doubt those claims as both of those manufacturers do their homework. As far as on the P5; we don't have comparisons between the different wheel set ups. Regardless, with the rear wheel cut out formed as well as it is, a flat disc is a plenty fast set up on the P5.
