Review: This came to Queensland from UK. Nice bars, just what I wanted, although it was sent in plastic bag inside a paper bag. Fitted on bike but is not quite 100%. Would of been better if put in box with protection. Cost $100, can't wait another 3 weeks for replacement!
Review: Read any of my reviews, and I can find fault with almost everything, but I struggle to find fault here (within the limitations of what it is supposed to be) . They look well made and finished. More than that, they assemble well and seem robust. It was a simple thing to angle the hand grips to the right position. Different aerobars have different angles but these worked for me. I rotated mine a few degrees inwards so they are slightlypalm-down. A tip here: Wrap the bar tape before you set it up or you will have to take them apart again! The arm cups are plastic with a choice of 2 hole positions. Secured with a single screw, they are likely to rotate. That not a bad thing since it allows the cup to align with your arm. It concerns me a little that the screw might come loose so I might use a little threadlock if I need that security. The pads are velcroed in place so you have some adjustment/options down the line. You need to stick the velcro onto the cups. There is a complaint/review that one persons pads came loose. Clean before assembly. its sticky tape! Another negative is that a reviewer didn't have enough fat bar to clamp it to. Different bars are out there so the ideal position might be where your taper is. That's your bars not the product, however I suspect that you could swap left and right and build it backwards so that the bar it clamped to the narrow section using the spacers. There are options. There is nothing "marginal" here. nothing seems like it would fall apart if you actually raced it. I'm genuinly impressed.

*by B***N on 8 January 2026*

At 74, this is my first go at using aero bars, but I am impressed with the BBB Cycling product. They seem to be made of quality materials and installed easily on my KHS Flite 747. I was looking for a longer bar that would fit my 6'5" frame and these work nicely. As I have no previous experience with aero bars and am far from an expert regarding fit, my review may be questionable in value for more than the average rider. All in all, it is nice to have a position option while on a long bike ride. It just takes some getting used to. A final note: Be careful when using aero bars, as you don't have the same amount of control--practice using them while on a long, straight, unpopulated stretch of road.
