I have a Specialized Allez; and I am looking for a pair of good clip-on aero bars. Any suggestions? This bike is just a road bike not a tribike.

-thanks

I have these on my road bike (Trek 5200):

I have used the Jammer GT on a Trek Road bike

You get the aero position without overextending yourself.:D

Syntace C2's also work well on a road bike.

I too had a specialized Allez before upgrading to a tri bike this year. Not a bad machine.

I tried the Jammer's but couldn't get comfy. I moved to the Profile Design T2's and loved them. It takes some time to get used to the aggressive bend, but on short course you can really pull hard on the bars and get some extra torque.

It's great to be able to position the pads behind the handlebars and adjust the rotation of the pads.
