*Being such a strange geometry, I wasn't going to spend $300USD on a bar that might not have worked....and trust-me that bar was tested all winter long on the stationary trainer with out of the saddle sprints before it saw any actual road riding.

Depends on if your fit is such that you benefit/like having the hoods/brakes/shifting controls an extra 3CM away (AKA 1.2+"). I have a set (of look-a-likes*) on my roadie, and to make it work, I needed a shorter stem. Which the shorter stem makes the tops/hooks closer as well.

I do wrap the top of mine since we have long climbs and I keep putting my palm on the flat surface. I don't actually care about any aero effect...just the comfort they provide. I am desperately looking for another Zipp SL70 aero for my Roubaix. I think $250 is about the best I have seen. If anyone sees a better price, please PM me.

Those 3T aerobars are beautiful! I'm minaly going for the looks of the bars and not so much functionality. As long as the bars are reliable, comfortable and looks good I'm fine. And of course as long as its in my budget.

My wife just showed me an instagram link of these bars. Has anyone heard of them? They look pretty good to me and have a nice price tag on them. I just checked out their site and they are based in the US and have a decent warranty. Though they don't seem to have many products. But for the price I might just pull the plug on them.
