Most carbon bars don't allow you to clip on aero bars. You may want to check with the handlebar manufacturer before you buy.

Mine are aluminum. I think they are ITM. There is about 8mm of round bar where the stem attaches, after that they are oval cross section right up to the shifters.

To the best of my knowledge, there are not specific clip ons for an aero shape simply because there are so many aero shapes to consider. Check with the base bar manufacturer, if they didnt have the foresight to design the handlebar for clip-ons maybe they have an adapter of sorts for your bar...

You people should think of that before you buy stupidly shaped bars. Just sayin'
