We sat down over 12 months ago and all agreed;
There are no Mounts for Time Trial or Triathlon bars on the market which tick all the boxes for these disciplines in all critical areas:
- Universal Aerodynamic Design
- High Quality Materials & Finished Product
- Competitive Price
- Customization / Colour options to match your beloved race machine
- Lightweight & Compact design
This didn't seem to only apply to amateurs by any means either. Having seen quite a range of the World Tour professionals setup for Time Trials, it appeared teams were also facing the same issue; this small but essential product was being overlooked.
Fast forward to August 2019 and we had begun discussions with our design team in Changhua, Taiwan (the hotbed of lightweight bike part manufacturing) with whom we work side-by-side. We expressed our requirements, design and reasons a new product was needed in this space.
By late December we had tooled our finalized version of the design and got to work on production. Here we are just over 2 months later with our finished product in 8 different colours, with a lightweight design available for both Garmin & Wahoo, ready to dispatch to you all from our distribution centre in Cork, Ireland.
Our flick-switch internal design is currently patent pending and is a vast improvement on any existing systems constructed from plastic. It features a bearing system which runs track and has a lockout point at 90°.
Some photos below for you guys viewing. Hopefully you're as impressed with the design as we are!
