PLATT Carbon TT Handlebar Bicycle Aero Bars Tri Bars Cycling Rest Handlebar for Mountain Bike and Road Bike 31.8mm (Gloss White)

These clip on carbon aero bars are great for the price… very light weight and good looking.The included tape did not work well and one of the bars slipped. Instead, I used carbon friction paste and now they are on rock solid without slipping.Don’t over tighten them to a carbon handle bar… usually the max torque is around 6nm for carbon bars.The padding is pretty minimal, so these are best as is for sprint and maybe and Olympic triathlon. For longer duration use, I would cut some foam and add it underneath.

Nice bars but screws that came with it are not long enough for bracket that goes around my drop bars. Would like to get in touch with company to see about longer screws.

they keep moving, very complicated to keep the tight. They came without any piece to help tightening or adjusting them to my bike, at the moment i haven't been able to install them

The pads are only at handlebar height so, unless your bars are up high you will be leaning forward itno a position that I found is very uncomfortable and afforded no ability to reach the brake levers. I have older aero bars that have risers for your arms. they work okay but do not fit my new bike. These bars look great and are very lightweight, they just won't work for me. Wish I could have adapted them.

Though they did not come with any installation instructions, my husband was able to assist me for an easy installation. We did have to put a base layer sticky tape to make the fit proper despite ordering the size match for my handlebars. I am not mechanically inclined so with instructions I could have likely done this without my husband.The fit was super comfortable and I am optimistic with more time in the bars, I will quickly get comfortable and adjust to them so I can stay in them for longer durations.

Sadly for the first time in 14 years I am not happy with something I ordered...as stated by another gentleman these bars do not fit as stated the screws are much too short for 31.8 bars. Update the company came good not only on new screws but replaced the bars since they were rendered useless by 3 hours of trying to get them to work,The new ones with the proper screws worked fine..I can not give a 5 because I believe people should be aware of the problem with the screws.This is not the sellers fault as they come from china.If you order these bars be aware if the thread length is 1 inch do not even try to put them on downturn bars save yourself hours of thinking your doing something wrong. Call the company they will send you the 1.5 inch thread you need.If you are planning to put them on a flat bar (hybrid / mtn. bike) the inch will work but the 1.5 will be too big. these are worth the money other than that.

The performance, and overall looks, are amazing for the price point. I’m 6’1 on a size 61 frame (Fuji) and I like where my arms fall. Sure there’s no adjustability to give you a more custom fit, but these bars are 1/3 of the price of similar adjustable carbons. Use the attached picture measurement to see where your arm will rest. I switch between holding it at the ends, and bends, to give my body options. I bought these for comfort and it helped me having those extra hold positions to give different muscles a break.

I installed these a week ago and have ridden 23 mi already with them. Carbon fiber is very lightweight. They were very easy to put on but I do have some mechanical skills. There are a couple of adjustment screws provided for different widths of handlebars. I wrapped some black electrical tape around the bars prior to putting the arrow bars on which have helped keep them in place.
