Hello everybody,
First sorry if there’re some mistakes, always hard for my to write in English…
First post on this forum, but I’ve been ready you a lot last past weeks in order to improve my TT position. I’ve race in IM Kalmar this summer (33 km/h avr, 160NP) and I was happy with my time but I clearly can do better. I’ve attached two pictures from the race to see y position :

Currently, I’m rinding on a Canyon Speedmax CF disc which I’ve been upgrade over years (new wheels, AXS shifter). This summer/winter, I want to upgrade the cockpit. With the race, I’ve discovered 2 issues :
If during training I was able to keep my aero position, after 3/4h on race day I’ve to switch form extension to base bare and loosing time…I need to work on water bottle storage.I fed up with cables (not a big issue, only in my head I do agree)
So, I’ve decided to upgrade my cockpit this summer/winter. I’ve have change any thing yet (H30 base bar, clip-on Subsonic Bracket Kit and 35A extension) and from what I’ve seen I have to options : either I change every thing or juste armrest and extension. But if I want to clean the cockpit from cables, the first solution seen better. I’ve been looking around to find the perfect cockpit but there is no so mutch choice and I’m not sur about some of them. Here what I’ve found :
Tririg Alpha one. But a bit too expensive and not sur about taxes import to FranceVision TFA. Similar to Tririg, less expensive (but hard to found online). But I’m not sure it wont need to change extension and/or armrest after and then becoming very expensivePD tri stem + Progress Guidon PG-242 : https://progresscycles.com/fr/producto/pg-242-carbon-aerobar-hea-design/?srsltid=AfmBOoo3Z71qcYJLUxpixz-hTTp51zLXr1DzTN1_u-AB2KRb085Pp6x6 Seem very cool, but I don’t know the brand and I’m pretty sure the bar come for Aliexpress. PD tri stem + base bar + armrest + extension. I’ve found couple of basebar on aftermarket, but very few that’s seem cool and a lot with clipon and not direct mount for extensions… For armrest, I’ll go with Tririg if I can found some here in France. And I think I’ll go with PD ASC 52/43 (need to figure out which one…) or TFE pro (found one on aftermarket).
Right now, my favorite option is vision TFA, but a bit afraid to have the same problem to keep aero position. Since I’m not in a hurry for this project, if you guys have any suggestions or ideas, I’ll be happy to hear !
Thanks a lot !
