Fits perfectly on my 2012 Cervelo R3
I don't know why others are having a hard time with installing, but I found that the install was simple and a perfect fit with the included bar clamps. I didn't need the bushings at all. One person said the clamps are plastic, but I found that they were metal and very sturdy. Anyway, adjustments are very easy. The pads are velcro, so easily removed to access the adjustment screws on the arm rests. My biggest concern was whether I would need to move my front-mounted Garmin 510 Bike computer, but it fits just underneath the bars with about 1/4 inch clearance. I don't plan to install shifters, so I love the way they are easily removed. Bottom line, sturdy, light, comfortable and attractive looking. I recommend them.

Great set of clip on aero bars!
I read many reviews before purchasing the T3's. The T4's were the same price but many people did not like the new design and said they stuck with their T3's. So I bought the T3's, I do not have anything to judge against as these are my first set but I can tell you they will adjust to pretty much any position you need them to. There are infinite adjustments that you can do to get them to fit perfect. I played around with my seat height, bar height and the T3's adjustments to get a good fit. Took me awhile but I have it dialed in now and I am learning to ride in the aero position more and more. They are comfortable on my arms, the pads are pretty much perfect. I wrapped the ends with bike tape to match the handle bars and now my bike is transforming into a good tri bike. I have been using these for about two months and everything is working great, no issues.

Great for even non-racers
I do not race or enter in triathlons, etc. but I do often ride long distances (70-100 or more miles) in a day and will not ride without these again. Installation is very easy but finding the perfect fit took me a while. They are so adjustable in so many ways I'd be amazed if you can't find the right fit for you. I'm 6'3" and put these on a 61cm cyclocross bike and am quite comfortable. Similar to the T1+ and T2+ you do have to remove the arm rests for some adjustments, annoying but not that big a deal.For me dropping down on the bars adds about 1 - 1.5 mph without any extra effort. I'm gradually riding more and more miles while using them. At first my lower back muscles and upper arms were killing me but it is getting better. Having another hand position on long rides alone makes these worth buying.Make sure to tape them up. It's more comfortable if you do and the pre-cut holes for brakes whistle in cross winds if you don't.

Not as described.
Why why why!!! would you send me a different product than described and presented in pictures.I wanted the adjustable independent elbow pad part... I tried to work this out, so I changed stem, saddle position and still didn't achieve the required body/arm/head position because of lack of adjustability.I don't think the spacer accessory from Profile designs to add some height to TT bar will help with the issue.I am frustrated because the one I got is actually listed in Amazon as a newer version and the new one is actually 40$ cheaper!

A great set of aero bars
Received and installed these bars a few days ago, and they are performing well. They are very adjustable for length, fit, angle, etc. They come with all the accessories you need and are fairly easy to install and adjust (there will be many adjustments!). Only knock is on the arm pads--the velcro straps on the underside are a bit fragile so don't pull them tight!Note that these are drilled so you can run cable through them if you were wanting to put shifters at the ends of the bars. I would have liked a way to [aesthetically] plug the holes instead of using black tape.Overall a very good product for the price, very adjustable, light but not easily breakable.

Nice looking and versatile
I really love having an aero position avail when I need it. Since it uses a different set of leg muscles, if my legs start to get tired, I can change positions and I can feel instant relief. Where these things really shine is when you are riding into the wind. I can easily get an extra 3 to 5 mph if it's a strong wind.As for these particular bars. I had a set of cheap aero-bars on my old hybrid. When I upgraded my bike I decided to spend a little more for something that wouldn't cheapen the look of the bike. These were the perfect choice. They function beautifully and look nice. The fact that the clamps for the pads and the clamps for the handlebars are separate makes these bars incredibly adjustable. I have secondary break levers on the flats of my road bike. It took some adjusting and fine tuning, but now there is plenty of room for my hands on the flats with full use of the break levers.
