3 Styles of TT/Tri/Aero Bars - Which is best?

Home:Ballyhoura

Hi, I am about to buy my first set of clip-on TT/Tri/Aero Bars (whatever you like to call them!). Anyway, there are three styles: flat, one bend, s-bend. Which is the most popular/effective position?

These are the 3 Deda Parabolica bars. They are available to buy here on ribble each for €50 delivered.

Deda Parabolica Zero Extension
Deda Parabolica Uno Extension
Deda Parabolica Due Extension

Any help would be much appreciated...thanks in advance! Cheers

i reckon since the extensions are replaceable, that you can buy the extensions separately, and that they are all the same price and presumably provide the same performance... that it is completely a personal thing, and that our opinions may not be necessary.

but if i had to choose, the chicane or s-bend looks the like the one to me. will get the s-bend for myself when the time comes, except FSA Vision.

You already have a thread on bar extensions , go to your local shop spend the extra to get fitted in a aero postion or just buy a cheap pair a try them out.

Mr. Skeffington

Go for the S-bend ones

looks like the one bend is more comfortable, no bend more aerodynamic and the s bend a mix between the two.

What you mean Wiggle won't answer these sort of questions?

Not true at all.

Can't recommend a bar without knowing you, youre body shape, yor bike and your goals.

Just paraphrasing the Deda website:
"Parabolica Zero is straight - perfect for aerodinamic"
"Parabolica Uno is one curve, ideal for long rides."
