BBB Aero Extend Carbon TT Bars

    Bought these the week before the Charleville 2 day in September. Since buying them, I've taken them on 2 short practice spins before Charleville, used them for the ride out to the start of the 10km TT, the 10km TT itself, a practice spin last week and the 9km intervarsity TT. They are literally brand new, I even have all the original packaging.

    They are very adjustable (once clamped on there are 4 pad widths, infinite pad angles, and adjustable bar extensions) and hence very comfortable. They have cable guides and holes underneath, and the ends are reinforced, should you wish to add shifters. They fit oversized bars, but have shims for standard bars also.

    I have since changed my handlebars to FSA K-Force Compact bars, and as a result of the way the cables are routed out of the bartape I can no longer fit these TT bars.

    Would like to get as close to €120 as possible for these.

    No problem. What size bars do they fit?

    Oversized and they have shims for standard bars, just that my bars are oval shaped at the top part.

    By how many seconds would my time improve over a 20K TT using these aero bars? Moving from the drops. Not looking to add bar-end shifters so gears leavers will be in the same position as they are now FYI.

    I don't have personal times for comparison unfortunately, all the TT's I've done were varying distances, but you are noticeably faster with aero bars.

    So about a minute over 20k?

    Yeah, probably a decent estimate

    How does a euro per second sound?

    Haha, I like the technique you've adopted!

    How about we meet in the middle at roughly 1.333 per second saved and I'll stick them in the car and get them to you in the city centre tomorrow morning/afternoon?

    €60 was low-balling but I can't afford to spend much more. First TT will be in springtime so just looking for something to get me started! Good luck with sale!
