I use them on my SS road bike, not on my normal road bike. PM me if you want a set of bars that easily clip on and off (literally 60 seconds) , are lighter than nearly any other setup, don't crush your brake/shifter cables, and are carbon-handlebar compatible.

On my new road bike I have dropped them. I do miss them from time to time (crushing headwinds when riding solo makes me wish for aerobars).

I have ridden aerobars in their various formats for over 15 years. Current clip-on bars are OK, but the PedalSoft system that I use is far superior. They add a lot of visual and physical bulk to the front end which I find annoying and useless in about 70% of my daily riding. But on centuries and other long distance rides, I will slap them on and pick up the 1.5mph I gain while in the bars.
