Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Cane Creek Speedbars

Disclaimer: YES I used the search function...Bubkes!

Continuing...So, does anyone use Cane Creek Speedbars?

https://www.canecreek.com/speedbars.html

They look like they'd be useful for the road, being mass start legal, but what about for time-trials. They look like they'd take a toll on your arms after a while. Your whole body would be leaning into this tight angled corner where between your thumb and forefinger is jammed.

I've never seen anyone use them or seen a picture of them in use. If anyone does, please post!

Scary looking. Aero bars let you rest your weight on the pads, these don't.
