Carbon Fibre Bicycle TT Handlebar for Long-Distance Road and Triathlon Use
This New Field Car TT Timing Handle is a dedicated aerodynamic handlebar designed for cyclists prioritising performance over long distances or against the clock. Constructed from carbon fibre and featuring a black matte finish, it provides a rigid, lightweight platform for road bikes, time trial (TT) bikes, and triathlon (field) bikes. With a choice of two bar angles and three main widths, it allows riders to fine-tune their cockpit setup for improved comfort and efficiency during extended efforts, supported by its specific 31.8mm clamp compatibility.
Features and Construction
The handlebar's design focuses on delivering multiple fit options within a single product line. Its construction and sizing details provide a basis for selecting the right configuration for your bike and riding goals.
Material and Build
The handlebar is fabricated from carbon fibre, a material commonly chosen for high-performance bicycle components due to its favourable strength relative to its weight. The component has a stated weight of around 1000 grams and features a 'black extinction' finish, which provides a non-reflective, matte black appearance.
Size and Practical Fit
Fit is determined by three key specifications: angle, width, and size code. The bar is offered with a 10-degree or 15-degree angle, influencing the rider's arm and torso position. The main handle width comes in 400mm, 420mm, and 440mm options, correlating to overall bar reach. Furthermore, each angle and width combination is produced in S, M, and L codes, allowing for further nuance in the bar's shape and reach. The clamp area is designed for a standard 31.8mm diameter stem.
Uses and Placement
This component is intended for specific cycling disciplines where an aerodynamic riding posture is beneficial. Its compatibility list directly informs its primary applications.
Event or Professional Use
The product information explicitly states applicability for 'TT vehicles' and 'field vehicles', making it suitable for time trial racing and triathlon events where every second counts. The multiple sizing options allow competitive riders to achieve a personalised, aggressive aero position that can be maintained over the race distance.
Everyday Home Use
For the dedicated road cyclist or sportive rider, this handlebar can be fitted to a standard road bike ('road vehicles') to improve aerodynamics during long solo rides, group rides, or gran fondo events. The choice between 10° and 15° angles allows the rider to balance aerodynamics with comfort based on their flexibility and typical ride duration.
Benefits and Buying Value
The value of this product lies in its specificity and the range of choices it provides within a single purchase, moving away from a one-size-fits-all approach.
Reuse and Low Maintenance
As a structural bicycle component made from carbon fibre, it requires no ongoing maintenance beyond correct installation and periodic safety checks. It is a durable part designed for the lifespan of the bicycle frame it is fitted to, assuming it is not damaged in an accident.
Why Choose This Product
This handlebar stands out for offering eighteen distinct configurations (combinations of 10°/15°, 400/420/440mm, and S/M/L codes), enabling a highly specific fit. This level of choice is valuable for cyclists who have a clear understanding of their ideal cockpit geometry or who wish to experiment with different positions. The use of carbon fibre also contributes to a competitive overall bike weight.
