Alloy Aero Handlebars
I am looking to purchase Aluminum aero drop handlebars with some integrated cable routing (where the cables would protrude around the stem area). Essentially, I'm just looking for the alloy equivalent of the Enve or Easton type aero carbon bars. (I don't want to break the bank and I believe I will crash on occasion, so why go carbon?)
Any suggestions would be appreciated, looking to spend around or less than $100. Thanks in advance! |
I have the 3T Aeronova alloys. Even those are over your budget at $150 retail though:

There was a a guy here a while back that was trying to shill for a flat top alloy handlebar called StatiQ.

The Deda Superzero Alloy Bars have internal routing. Not exactly "aero" though.

If you would be interested in a compromise:
I've got one of the Easton handlebars, and though it doesn't have the integrated cabling it is aero. I bought it a while back for a build that ended up in a totally different direction and they've never even been mounted on a bike, just hanging out in my garage. https://www.bikeforums.net/[img]http...om/oBLHwAF.jpg https://imgur.com/vUK75RN https://imgur.com/oBLHwAF I'd say that they're available for much less than $100... But I just googled them to check the price I might have paid for them a couple of years ago and they're on sale at Competitive Cyclist at the moment for $17 if you use the 44cm size. |
I have some Zipp service course SLs that are nice... flattish top more than aero top though, and teh cables run along a channel on the underside of the bar rather than internal to the bar. The net effect is the same for the rider though. I believe I paid under $100.

Definitely some solid considerations so far, I do appreciate all of your responses!
Out of curiosity, any thoughts on this? https://www.trekbikes.com/us/en_US/e...lebar/p/11292/ |
That looks like it fits your bill to a T if you like the shape of the bar.
