    Just wondering is there any advantage of choosing a curved basebar over a flat one for TT bike? Thinking of upgrading my TT setup and willing to try out different setup. I know the body position is everything but small tweaks along with my position may work too.

    Opinions.

    I don’t TT, but use TT bars for pursuit.

    I prefer the slope downward bars as it feels easier to get into the skis post start. I also feel like my start is a little more aero. However, my flat bars feel like I can get a better leveraged pull out of them.

    Obviously, I don’t use brakes, so I’ve no idea if that would have a bearing on choice.
