QUOTE(miaopurr @ May 23 2011, 01:50 PM) well there are 2 reasons why people wanna install aerobar. one for aerodynamic and another one is for comfort. for me the main thing is comfort. i go cycling 3 to 4 times a week and about 2 hours++ each time and stock roadbike handles really really tires out my arm from supporting my upper body. so i wanna pasang aeorbar to rest my arms on it. in a simpler way of saying it "i'm lazy" |

QUOTE(miaopurr @ May 24 2011, 12:52 AM) i used to have an aerobar installed on my bike. but then i removed it for these reasons: i dun ride in a group.i ride by myself - not suitable or considered a faux pas when riding in a group. - bike handling ability is reduced. - one of the goal of riding in a group is to help our friends draft behind us. if we are in an aero position, our friends behind won't benefit much from group riding - i thought aero position can reduce the comfort level on a long ride? chest expansion is reduced, upper body weight is resting on your shoulders, your hip in forward position (tip of saddle). - riding in an upright position with our hands on brakehood or on top of the handlebar should be just fine - aerobars are heavy. - aerobars are meant for time trial, or when training for time trial. |
