I tried mounting a pair of the A710 clip-on aerobars onto a Profile
Design Stoker 26 base bar. Unfortunately, it seems as though the
extensions are just too short for my forearms - I can get the pads
into a good position, but then my hands extend past the ends of the
aerobars.
These are the single bend alloy bars - 270mm long. They appear to be
shorter than any others I've seen on other bikes. I think I need
another 3 inches or so! Some of the Oval Concept bars appear to be a
bit longer, but I think I need even more. Are there other
manufacturers that make 22.2mm bars I could substitute in there? I
still like the clips and the arms rests, so I wouldn't mind keeping
the rest of the setup if possible. I also like the 30 degree rise.
Am I missing something here? I never thought of my forearms as being
particularly long (I'm 6'3", fairly normal proportions).
Thanks for any suggestions you can provide.
