FS: Vision Aerobars

[Jaclyn]

Bought the bike on eBay; replaced the aerobars with drop bars. The bike was owned by a triathlete - it's a Seven and everything on this bike was top end. I don't know much about time trial bikes, so have tried to describe the bars as accurately as possible. I can send photo's or respond to questions.

These are Vision by Full Speed Ahead integrated aerobars (not clip on's). They are probably carbon similar to the Trimax Carbon R-bend. 26mm at the stem. The length is 250mm. The riser for the elbow pads is 12.5mm.

There are Shimano light action shifters on the aero bars; the aero bars are already wrapped with black handlebar tape. The wings have TekTro RM 5.0 carbon brake levers (these are the nicest carbon brake levers I've ever seen).

So if you are looking to convert your road bike to a time trial bike, these are ready to go with new cabling. Make offer ... otherwise I'm selling them on eBay.

Thanks.

Here's photo of the bike with the aero bars:

Hi,
are these the full carbon integrated ones? I'm looking for one for my time trial bike.
Can you see which model is it? I ask because there's one kind under recall :(
Do you have a photo (or photos) of the handlebars?
Thanks!

I've looked at the bars again and can not find the model. After looking "under the tape" they are not the all carbon bars (which sell for $579) but the non carbon version which sells for $269. In addition, they have Shimano light action shifters (sell for $80). DH swapped brake levers (non carbon, but match the shifters) (sell for $30). And they are already neatly wrapped with handlebar tape. So new these cost almost $400. There's a similar pair on eBay with auction ending today that I expect to go for >$200.

Aero bars generally come in only one width - it's not like fitting a drop road bar where you try to match the width of the bar to the width of your shoulder. These are about 41 cm center to center. The length of the bars is important - these were a little too long for me (I'm very petite) - if I had kept the set up I would of had the bars cut down. So make sure 250 is long enough for you since you can't add length (they were fine for my 5'10" DH).

You'll need a 26 mm stem. It wasn't difficult changing the bike from the aero bars to drop road bars so I don't think you'll have much difficulty going from road bars to aero bars.

Thanks for the photos :)
Too bad they are not the full carbon stem-bars-aerobars - I am really looking for a good deal on the full trimax, and 250 is exactly my size! :D
Good luck on ebay - some of those go quite well on the auctions!
