Hello!
Having posted this question elsewhere I was referred to this forum-I have a road bike currently outfitted with a 44cm wide set of carbon handlebars that, because of the flare at the center of them, I cannot put clip-on aero bars onto. I have found another excellent pair of handlebars for sale for a reasonable price that are aero bar compliant, but that are only 40cm wide. Will that 4cm really make much of a difference if I am to buy them? I have looked this up a bit and asked around, but I live in a very rural area where I wasn't able to get much of an answer, and beliefs online go back and forth a bit. Is there anything I can really do besides driving a few hours and paying a couple hundred bucks to get fitted in order to figure this out? Thank you!
