Where it fits for triathletes

The points below are our reading of the listed features, not test results.

  • Road-bike upgrade. It is a drop bar for a road bike with a 31.8 mm stem clamp. It does not replace TT extensions.
  • SRAM RED AXS riders. The blip locators are built for SRAM wireless blips, so it matters most if your bike runs that system. We have not fitted one.
  • Price. At £299.99 it is £40.01 below the RRP.
