I am gearing up for my first triathlon and I want to get some clip on aerobars for my bike. unfortunately my LBS doesn't know of any clip on bars that will work on my handle bars. I have the Ritchey WCS handbar and stem same same as this : http://coachlevi.com/product-reviews/tested-ritchey-wcs-4-axis-stem-handlebar/

The problem is the taper on the handlerbar. Are there aerobars that would work? I was thinking of putting on the ones that a two individual j-bend bars that would mount at the edge of the taper. I just don't know and my LBS was no help, they kindly offered to sell me a new handlebar.

Any suggestions?

Some aerobars have a pretty narrow clamp that may fit next to stem. Something like Visiontech, some of profile design's models and maybe syntace.
