Hed aerobars $395-423

Is this the appropriate place to post or have I broken Forum rules?

I was thinking of getting these. Comments? - on price and store (not needed on bar itself)

$423 is the cheapest I've seen them. I've looked at tri-sports, R&A Cycles, all3sports, and a bunch of others. I have no experience with the store, however.

They've always treated me right. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again and I'm also considering the Hed bar. :)

I just put in my order, but unfortunately the carbon s-bends are on back order.

Didn't call to ask. I think a lot of retailers are out. Maybe call HED directly???

I'll send Tri-Zone an email. They'll know, probably.

Thanks,

Yes I ordered and they should be here by Friday. I still need to figure out my stem size though. I was thinking of one of those Look adjustables

Don't the Hed bars have a little more drop than the Syntace bars, by way of example? I've got an 85mm Profile -15 degree (I think) stem I got from Tri-Zone. I could be lower....
Those Look stems are heavy. :)

I don't have a stem (Profile design carbon 1-piece)

I've decided I don't like the Profile Design carbon aerobars precisely because of the stem problem. I love their new seat, which I just got. Great ride.

Just got mine yesterday - SWEEEET!

One consideration is that if you're not in the aero position using the s-bends, there's not much to grab onto. I need to think about how I will go up steep hille.
