Getting ready to start my first full season of triathlons and I am looking to pick up a set of used clip-on aerobars. Other then the pads being worn out, should I be worried about anything else?

Thanks,
Brian

Checking to ensure that the screws are not rusted / corroded might be prudent. I have read of these snapping mid-ride.
New pads can be ordered from manufacturer or a co. called Cee Gees.

I read your post and I am considering selling mine. I am not competing any longer. They are carbon profile design clip-ons. Pads are in excellent shape. I also have metal shims I ordered for them to work with smaller diameter handle bars. I am selling for $75 shipped to lower 48. New these can run anywhere from $140.00 to $180.00 . PM me if this interests you. I can send pictures.

What should I consider when adding aero bars? What are good brands? Are there pitfalls to be aware of? How can I adjust them to fit me?

I read somewhere about "bar ends" to put on your handle bars, do you recommend them? Is this similar to adding clip on aero bars?

If stay in the aero position for an extended period of time, I experience discomfort in my right hip and the lateral aspect of my left knee since putting on aerobars.

Bike upgrades to gain speed: better wheelsets, a tri-bike, road bike with aerobars, even getting rid of those love handles before getting that lighter bike.

When first going aero, your shop should begin by putting you in the least aggressive position. This means the aerobar pads will be almost level or just below the saddle.

A better bike is not the answer to meeting your performance goals. I mean if you gave Nike running shoes to a tortoise would he move any faster?

A bike is NOT a piece of metal with a couple of wheels at either end and a steering thing to stop you running over old ladies. No! ... a bike is a space-age “weapon of mass confusion.”
