Review on Platt Handlebar Bicycle Cycling Mountain by Chris Hanson

These rods are too narrow for comfort and control. I installed them as far from the stem as my handlebars would allow, but I felt cramped and very uncomfortable. I'm used to aero bars on my tricycle and will continue to look for a pair of clamps for my road bike that either have more adjustment or a wider stand. The carbon braid looks good, but the handlebars weren't stamped with maximum torque and the handlebars didn't come with written instructions. I am returning them for these reasons. The clamps held the bars securely - I've seen reviews of other aero clamps noting that the clamps do not fully secure the bars and double sided tape has to be used to fix this issue. This wasn't an issue with these bars, but without the torque guide I might have over-tightened them and risked damaging them mid-ride.
