"If you are comfortable on this type of aero-bar, these are a good cheap entry to aero-bars with enough adjustability to satisfy most riders."D.Z.
Ease of use
Once installed, they are pretty easy to use.
Quality of Construction
No problems so far. They are alloy, and the pads have help up well.
Fit
Considering their adjustability, I am able to get what I feel is a good fit.
Comfort
They are an "r" or "s" bend, and I have had a hard time getting comfortable on them. Because of the bend, the user has to point their thumbs towards the road ahead, putting a lot of strain on the wrists. For me, this is uncomfortable for long periods - 10+miles at a time.
Adjustability
They are adjustable - quite so. The pad height cannot be adjusted, but other than that, you can adjust length of bar, placement of pads, and separation on the bars.
Durability
They haven't failed me yet.
Value
I could have spent less on other brands.
Appearance
They look fine. I'm tempted to throw some grip tape on them to give them a little bling.
Customer Service
Not necessary so far.
Performance
When I lean forward, I can definitely feel different muscles in use, and I can feel the difference in speed. I have gained at least 1mph using these. I didn't rate them a 5 because I feel that if I could spend more time on them before becoming uncomfortable, I would perform better.
Strengths
Adjustability
Weakness
Weight, bend.

Ease of installation
I had a hard time getting these set properly. My handle bars taper right where the clip-ons attach, so I can't get a solid grip. After much work, I was able to get them installed, but I'm afraid to adjust them further.
