Enve Aero Clip-On Extensions are lightweight, adjustable clip-on carbon aero extensions for achieving a fast position on your road bike. The SES Aero Extensions integrate seamlessly with the SES Aero Road Bar and provide the fastest solution for athletes looking for refined aerodynamics on a road bike. The SES Aero Extensions are compatible only with the SES Aero Road Handlebar. The Aero Clip-On Extensions are constructed from 100% uni-directional carbon fiber and cold-forged aluminum. The clip-on bars share the same extensions as the SES Aero TT Bar and may be cut to three unique styles including J-bend, S-bend, and straight. If the rider desires to do so, shifters may be run on the extensions. The carbon pad carriers allow for a smooth vibration dampened ride and, with a reversible 8 hole pattern, the perfect pad position may be achieved. The pads are compression molded neoprene and provide a comfortable armrest and slip-free surface.
While owning a TT specific superbike is without a doubt something all cyclists should experience once in their cycling lifetime, it isn't required to go faster. The SES Aero Clip-On bars integrate seamlessly into the SES Aero Road Bar to help riders achieve the most aerodynamic position possible on their road bikes.
Key features and compatibility
- Lightweight construction using 100% uni-directional carbon fiber and cold-forged aluminum
- Clip-on design compatible with SES Aero Road Bar; can be cut to J-bend, S-bend, and straight configurations
- Shifter compatibility on the extensions for streamlined shifting options
- Carbon pad carriers for vibration dampening and adjustable pad position with an 8-hole reversible pattern
- Compression molded neoprene pads providing a comfortable armrest and slip-free surface
- Seamless integration with the SES Aero Road Bar for maximum aerodynamics
Positioning and comfort considerations
The reversible 8-hole pad pattern allows riders to dial in the perfect pad position, while the neoprene pads offer both comfort and secure grip to minimize movement. The combination of carbon fiber and aluminum components ensures a stiff, responsive feel without adding excessive weight. Shifting options on the extensions enable in-situ adjustments without compromising the aero profile.
For riders seeking the fastest aerodynamic setup on a road bike, the Enve clip-ons provide a competitive edge, especially when paired with the SES Aero Road Bar. The design emphasizes an integrated, smooth transition from bars to extensions to minimize drag and improve overall efficiency on sustained efforts and time trials on the road.
Real-world notes and considerations
- B-Stock units are occasionally available at a discount, with typical warranty coverage remaining in effect. These units may have packaging imperfections but are otherwise as-new.
- Aero Clip-On Extensions are not universally compatible with all road handlebars and are specifically designed to integrate with the SES Aero Road Bar.
- Some users report fitment variations with non-matching frames or generations; minor modifications (such as using an inner tube) may be employed to achieve a secure fit, though this should be approached with caution and safety in mind.
Usage notes and care
Regular inspection of clamp areas and pad carriers is recommended to maintain a secure fit and vibration dampening performance. Periodic cleaning and inspection of the neoprene pads will help preserve comfort and grip over time. If shifter integration is used, ensure proper cable routing and indexing to maintain reliable shifting performance.
How To Fit Clip-On Aero Bars – Make Your Road Bike Into A Time Trial Machine
In summary, Enve Aero Clip-On Extensions offer a lightweight, adjustable, and aerodynamically optimized solution for road cyclists seeking to reach the fastest possible position without purchasing a TT bicycle. Seamless integration with the SES Aero Road Bar underscores the focus on refined aerodynamics and rider comfort during performance-oriented riding.
