Aero Bars,Bicycle Bike Armrest Handlebars TT Rest Bar Aluminum Alloy Black for Mountain Road Bicycle Bike Racing Handlebars

My dad requested that for Christmas! He loves it

If you've already made it through the questionably translated description and are now looking through the reviews, hopefully you realize what you're getting into. What the heck does DRCKHROS even mean, if not an attempt at stealing the ROCKBROS name for the undiscerning buyer?Hopefully you haven't had the thought, "take that, local bike shop! Why pay 100+ dollars for aero bars when I can get them for 20 on Amazon?" By this point we all know Amazon has become synonymous with 'ridiculously cheap garbage product.' And that's exactly what you're getting. But that's not necessarily a terrible thing.If you are a tinkerer, ready to swap out some parts, whip out the electrical tape, maybe some super glue, and drop a few F-bombs, you will be fine with this product. If you need something that perfectly fits your bike without modification, look elsewhere.All that being said, I really like these bars! I am not a professional racer. I don't wear fancy biking gear or goggles or scoff at people who drive their cars to work. I love long-distance road and trail biking, and these bars help take the strain off my wrists on a long, straight stretch of reasonably flat pavement.I recommend wrapping with handlebar tape for added comfort.

It does take some fitment, and tightening the shims down tight, but it stays put now. Without the shims, it wouldn't stay on the handle bars, but the included shims were necessary. They are aluminum shims, and have little teeth to dig into the handle bar to keep it tight. Some of the teeth were crushed because i had to really tighten it down, but it's holding and it doesn't rotate at all now. Had to screw it it down hard though.Went on few bike trips and it's held up my weight leaning on them.I think they're a good value.My handle bars had a slight slope from the center going out, so it took a little bit of fitment to get the shims just right. I had to move the shims inside a little bit, then it worked.

Be prepared to do some machining to make these work. Most notably the toothed adapters to fit smaller bars were damaged or had a lot of extra materials which would not allow them to fir into the aero bars. After that was resolved they simply would not grip my old handlebars despite replacing the bolts using locktite grip paste aftermarket adapters and old innertubes... These bars just moved where ever they heck they wanted to. If you enjoy the mystery of what your bike is going to do next, these are the bars for you. If you want your bars to be tight and safe... Find another set.

I was apprehensive ordering this so I wanted to write this review to give my positive view. It was pretty easy to install and everything seems to be high quality and sturdy. The shims were a little awkward to fit on the handlebar clamps. But once I figured how to fit it, the bar was sturdy. And there were comments of missing screws. There was an extra screw of each type in my box. I didn't use the sponge pads because my old one seems to be higher quality. They seem to be adequate if this is your firdt aerobar. If anything changes after my ride tomorrow, I'll post an update. Everything seems to look good to me!

I liked it, because it introduced me to the world of Aero Bars but its cheaply made and won't hold up after prolong use. The forearm pads are not durable and was configured improperly. The pad mounts has two mounting predrilled holes. But the holes were drilled opposite of what they should be. In other words you can only use one of the holes to mount the pads. If you use both hole of the pad mounts, the mounts would be a 180 degrees off and won't fit the curvature of your elbows.

Works great... However I use them as accessory bar(s).I ride a Isinwheel U7, these fit right on so I never run out of mounting space.Hey Bar people. I tied a crossbar to my areobars set up to mount accessories... Be nice if you made and sold them.

If i had not watched the video I would have thought the armrest drill holes were fabricated 90 degrees out. Clear instructions need to be included with the pieces
