I want to purchase a pair, but I couldn't find any specs on weight/adjustability on the profile site. Are these bars even in production yet?

Tri Zone shows them for sale at tri-zone.com. They look really cool, but trizone.com lists them at 498 grams, which is way heavier than my C2 areobars.

They are avilaibale. I think they ended up being a bit heavier and a bit more expensive than originally promised, hence the lack of popularity. They also are coming out at a time when every company under the sun has clip-ons and trick integrated bars.

I've seen a pair, and played with them in a store. They sure look cool, they would seem to be comfortable, and they don't have much rise on them. They would not appear to be too adjustable though, and are not cheap.

I had the chance to check these out several years ago. Bob Duncan of Wheelie Fun MultiSport in Lebanon, OH adapted the idea from the blokes at MDT. After pitching the design like a snake oil salesman for a while he finally got Profile to take them to production. They are not a lost-core product, so they ended up a bit beefier than they could be (wait till you see FSA's new clip ons!) They have some adjustment on the base bar, but none for length. I haven't ridden many miles on them, but have tried them out on a bike adjusted for me. They seem nice and would be a good fit tool where a "compact" fit is needed. Their low stack, and simplistic design are both benefits and limitations. At $250+ I'd suggest you buy in person rather than roll the dice with a mail order purchase.

If you are ever in Southern Ohio, drop in and see Bob. He, and his store are the real deal.

Dave, who (or perhaps what) is MDT? Thanks for the help.

I think SuperDave is referring to this aerobar:

You are correct. Plenty slick, but costly at about $850 USD.
