Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Black Profile Designs Sonic/Ergo/4525a Aerobar with Adjustable Stack Height (55mm - 135mm) by Eduardo Locke

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best of all, they're $96 on Amazon and $159 everywhere else.

Great aero bars for tall riders. I mounted them on my road bike. Some adjustments are required not only for the handlebars themselves, but also for the seat height and forward position. I haven't reached 100% yet, but I'm sure I'll optimize it on the next rides. I'm 6ft 1in and they fit me perfectly with the actual bar adjustment. It's 400 miles long, make sure your elbows are in the braces and not your forearms. I drove 51 miles to test them! When I first got into a stance, I immediately felt like I had less control and I was reeling. But as I drove on, I got used to the different handling. Once you get used to riding in them, they become incredibly comfortable. Hands and fingers were no longer numb. I recommend that you first ride them through deserted streets and then get back on the bike through tighter turns and intersections. I also bought a computer mount for them at a local bike shop. I couldn't find it online.
