I'm trying to get that setup sooner than later and have parts, and could be loaned parts and could buy parts.
I want to know how the aerobar / drop position would be different than on the road, and why. Mainly what the best setup for pursuit on the track would be. Are there track specific pursuit bars I should look into?
Input on these things and anything else related to aerobars / their position and body/torso due to the bars is appreciated. Things including and not limited to...
Extension types and why - ski poles in a Y to roll solders was suggested and current setup.
Fore/aft pad position as well as height.
Curious if the pelvic angle is more acute or open.
Well, there is only so much useful advice that can be offered from a forum. Basically, a forum can generally get a person from rank beginner into intermediate. After that, you (your son) will need individualized, in-person attention from someone who knows more than you do. Meaning: a Coach.
I mean, we can postulate and debate the pros and cons of it all. But, there is only so much we can do.
