I’m looking to extend my aerobars by a few inches. Currently using a 2020 speed concept with the monobar fork extension.
I can find cheap extenders, typically for MTB, on Amazon but I can’t find anything that supports a Di2 cable. I can vaguely recall seeing someone offering a 3d printed version that would suit but my googlefu is coming up short.
Any ideas? Basically just trying to lengthen this:
Thanks!
How about the plug-in extension?
Thanks - I’ve seen those and thought about that as part of my solution. In my mind, I probably have 3 solutions* that could exist
1 - cheap extensions (do these exist?) - $50-$100?
2 - Plug in version, plus reach adapter (they only have 3 bolts vs the 4 bolt that I have), plus bars and would likely require a shop to bend them for me. Probably $500-600? ($250 for the bar plus, $150 for the reach extenders, plus extra for the bars)
3- Custom front end. Probably TriRig ultimate scoops + an adapter plate and hardware to match my current position. Probably the most aero but… $1500-2000.
Trying to see if I can knock off a cheaper solution before I go more expensive. And if I’m going to spend $500+, I might as well just go for the most optimal solution anyway.
*The 4th solution is just to cut my base bar in half (cut off the grip part) and bolt on some ultimate scoops to the wing I have, but I suspect this is neither aero nor safe
With black friday sales from TriRig and this adapter from FastTT, you can probably go option 3 for closer to $1000. The Scoops Ultimate might get you as much reach as you need without any additional reach adapters, but you could always get these or these to add a few cm.
Ooh, I hadn’t thought of that and I haven’t seen that plate adapter before.
I’d still need to figure out adding height and angle against the scoops - which adds a bit of cost. Angle seems easy since TriRig parts look like they stack, but I probably would need to add stack somewhere.
But something to think about if they go on sale and/or if option #1 doesn’t exist
Thanks!
