MBN:BLACKINCASC
The AeroCoach Ascalon adapter for the Black Inc. aero barstem AB03 handlebar allows you to upgrade your Black Inc. AB03 handlebar to use Ascalon extensions.
ASCALON EXTENSIONS
AeroCoach Ascalon extensions are an ergonomic and aerodynamic replacement for standard extensions. Using our Align Wing carbon arm rests (for carbon Ascalons) or Align Curve carbon arm rests (for titanium Elite Ascalons), and providing extra support for the forearm and wrist you can improve your handling and stability on the bike when in the aero position.
Ascalon extensions are aerodynamic and lower total system drag by up to 1% compared with Angles extensions. This is worth approximately 2w at 45kph, or 4w at 55kph.
For more information on the selections available for Ascalon extensions, please see the links below:
Choice of adapter angle is dependent on personal aerodynamics and comfort preference, as well as UCI restrictions (only applies if racing in UCI TTs).
As a guide, 15deg Ascalon adapters will result in a hand height relative to elbow position approximately similar to using 20-25deg standard 22.2mm extensions, 20deg adapters will result in a hand height approximately similar to using 30-35deg extensions, and 25deg adapters will result in a hand height approximately similar to using 40-45deg extensions.
For an explanation of the UCI regulations and the various Ascalon options to achieve regulation heights, please see our blog post here.
