I am looking for some minimalist aero bars for my road bike that I plan to use for Escape from Alcatraz. Something like the Profile Jammer is too big. I am thinking more of ITU legal type bars.
Any suggestions /
Thanks.
**Best “Mini” bar **
Hands down, the Four Seasons…
The Ritz has a good one. Top shelf all the way. A bit pricey though.
FSA mini bars. Search posts with that title and Tom D as the poster. All the info and pictures can be found there.
The hed clip lite. for the itu legal version you must cut the straight extension for the second curve. The remaining portion, alll straight, is ideal
Ideal, apart from the considerable price difference, that is.
and you have two extension, a normal short Itu legal and the mini
.
Hmm, I believe Lionel was asking for an ITU legal mini bar, adapting a HED clip lite seems an expensive way of achieving it.
I’ve been looking for a particular bar for a month now…
It’s basically a little “V” shaped areabar (Cinelli?)…just for your hands.
If anybody knows the actually model name, please post as I’m trying to tracking it down. Might just have to resort to my machinist buddy making a set…
thanks
performance bike carries the mini Cinelli bar, is it the spinachi? anyways they carry it.
I second the HED cliplites and you can cut them down in various ways. A friend of mine found some Profile jammer clamps and put on the HED extensions, he love it. Another option is the Deda blackstick bar, whatever it’s called where it’s a single extension that clamps onto the base bar and splits into a y-grip at the end.
Thanks for the post. Unfortunately…the Spinachi isn’t the bar. This one literally just looks like a V.
Sorts looks like this, but as separate pieces.
Sorry, it’s the “Spinacissimi” aero bar. Performance bike item #50-1387D. It’s in thier print catalog, haven’t looked online but it’s probably there. $89.99 on sale for $79.99 right now.
This one looks pretty good to me. Plenty of room for bottled beer, canned beer, airline bottles of booze and snacks. I’d recommend this one. Go get it!
You da man!
thanks.
~That’s the clip-black. The Blackstick is a seat post.
