PRO Vibe Aero Handlebar

PRO Vibe Aero Handlebar Info

PRO builds components in response to professional rider needs. This Vibe Aero Handlebar uses an airfoil top section to reduce drag, and to run cables and wires internally.

The bar is constructed out of unidirectional carbon fiber, with segments strengthened by Innegra. This allows for a shape that is both aero and comfortable, as PRO was able to form them based on shape needs rather than the nature of the material. There are intake and exit holes for brake cables and Shimano Di2 shift wire built into the design. You can find the intakes on the inside of the curve where the hooks transition to the tops, the exits are near the transition from the top wing round 31.8mm clamping section. There’s even an exit port in the middle of the clamping area, so you could potentially run a Di2 wire through the stem and to a Di2 battery in the steerer tube, provided you’re using a Di2-compatible stem and battery holder and have the requisite depth in the steerer for the battery.

While the clamping section is round and is compatible with most stems with a faceplate width of 40mm or less, it’s designed to work with PRO’s Vibe stem.

The top is an airfoil, and can be either left untaped for better aerodynamics, or taped for greater comfort.

The hooks have 80mm of reach and 130mm of drop. Compact dimensions. The shape is a rounded ergo shape that is flat at the top for an easy transition from the tops to the hoods, and shaped on the bottom for long hours in the drops.

There are two widths available, 40 and 42cm, measured center-to-center.

Weight for the PRO Vibe Aero Handlebar is 240g in the 40cm width.
