Hey guys i have another question. Im in the market for a set of clip-on aero bars im looking for some that look like the aero bars on a argon 18 mercury. Could you guys refer me to some good products resembling those aero-bars. material doesnt matter much for me, but bang for the buck does, ive been lookin on ebay and craigslist but of course not a good selection. thanks in advance for the help. hoping to find a alright set for around 50 bucks, or is that just impossible??
Cheapest I can think of...

Im guessing they dont make anyhting in this shape other then high end carbon fiber huh? maybe i will have to settle on a different shape in aero-bar. I was kinda hoping someone would know of some not really known brand that sells aero-bars for cheap etc. thanks for the help
Check out the Profile T2+ cobra aluminum. They are S-bends (like the Profile T2 Cobra carbons you pictured above) and have a $100 MSRP, but you can probably find them for cheaper either used or new.
