3T Aerotundo LTD Bar

3T Aerotundo LTD Bar Info

If you are on a quest to build up the most aero road bike imaginable, the 3T Aerotundo LTD Bar will take care of your leading edge contact point. As a member of 3T’s LTD group, the Aerotundo LTD will not only be aero and lightweight, it will be amazingly comfortable for your hands, which, in the end, may be the best reason to spring for the 3T Aerotundo LTD Bar.

Like the 3T Rotundo, the Aerotundo has a more traditional rounded shape that will give your hands plenty of room to move. The medium-deep 139mm drop will work well for folks who like a particularly aero position and for riders who hate ergonomic shapes but don’t want to go too deep with the drop. What will really turn you on about the Aerotundo LTD is the aero top section. With its airfoil shape, the bars offer the least possible drag while still accommodating things like internal cable routing. Perhaps the most important by-product of the tear-drop shape is that the top section gives your hands a particularly comfortable place to sit. So when you are hammering on the flats while riding in the drops, with their two-degree flare for greater wrist comfort, the top section will be nearly invisible to the wind, but then when you are powering up a climb with your hands on the uppers, your palms won’t get that bar fatigue that can start to set in on a longer uphill effort. You’ll also find the ramps offer your hands a great place to rest when you are hovering just behind the hoods riding third or fourth wheel in the paceline.

The Aerotundo LTD will surprise you with how light it remains, in spite of the fact that there is a touch more material required in order to fashion the airfoil shape of the uppers. At just 185 grams in the 42cm (measured center-to-center at the brake hood area, width, the Aerotundo LTD keeps its svelte figure because 3T uses a high-modulus unidirectional carbon fiber, which keeps the weight way down without sacrificing any stiffness or durability. It’ll look pretty sweet on your bike too since it has the benefit of the UD Gloss Black finish with 3T’s new badass “Road” brand graphics, which will highlight the slickness of the carbon work while matching any frame color combo you can imagine.

It fits 31.8 stem clamps, though of course you have to look no further for the perfect stem to match than the 3T Arx series. The 3T Aerotundo LTD Bar will help you find the perfect bike position whether you like to hammer the flats or fly up the hills.
