Okay,
Here's what I wasted my money on today. A Stowe Time Trial bicycle.

My wrists make too much contact in the drops on my Aerus Comp bars.

^^^Weird. That's the same problem I was having, except it was with Ritchey WCS bars. My wrists would actually be sore after sprinting.

I had given up using the drops altogether. I really didn't even have to be sprinting to make contact. The Ritcheys are 132 drop/78 reach vs 145/90 for the Aerus...shame because i really liked the flat tops.

Did you try the Carbon Streem version? Those look awesome.

No, these were a swap off a new bike. I would have never paid retail for them.

My new climbing wheels... actually just selling them for a friend, but figured you guys would like to see them. I'm afraid to put them on the scale as I might be tempted myself.

I stopped at their booth at MBGP once. Neither one of them even acknowledged my presence. I guess they knew their wheels wouldn't support my 240 lbs and didn't want to waste time.
