WHY WE CREATED AEROBAR ONE
We designed Aerobar One to be a simple and effective solution for achieving a true high-hands position.
This system of components serves as an introduction to a high-hands time trial position, combining the three vital components, necessary for successful execution. Our ergonomic design facilitates aero positioning, improving stability and support for the upper body when aero positions are employed.
Offering universal fitment, our wedges feature slotted fore-aft mounting points, catering for bikes/handlebars using M5 or M6 connection screws. Our Aero One extensions are the industry standard 22.2mm diameter, are compatible with modern electronic shifters and can be readily trimmed for the correct length and height.
Improved Aerodynamic Performance
The high-hands time trial position has long been used by athletes seeking greater comfort, but field aero testing (Alphamantis Technologies) shows that a properly supported high-hands position also tests faster as well.
Our test data shows a 3.5% lower average CdA (Variable 1 vs Variable 2 below). This is an equivalent power gain of 14 Watts, worth over 30 seconds for a 40 km time trial completed at 375 Watts. For a full distance IRONMAN completed at 290 Watts, this is an equivalent power gain of 10 Watts, worth over 100 seconds.
A properly supported high-hands position allows the athlete to better execute aero techniques and improves position consistency. The net performance gain from an improved aerodynamic position has a very significant impact on time trial performance, across all disciplines.
