Olympic Games, World Championships, European Championships, British National Championships - These armrests have been used to win medals at them all! There is no other armrest product on the market with such a track record (pun intended) at this price point.

 

High Side Ergonomic Armrests are designed to provide a more comfortable, ergonomic and secure fit to the forearms when in the TT or Triathlon aerobars. They are also designed specifically to facilitate narrower arm and elbow positions than other armrest cups, which have been consistently shown to increase rider speed through improved aerodynamics (reduced CdA).

 

Fully compliant with 2024 UCI regulations.

 

Durable and reliable. Fit and forget.

 

These armrests are bought and used by top professionals with their own money who rely upon them for their target events at the highest level.

 

The high sides provide security and reassuring support, which is essential for safe and confident high speed riding in Time Trial, Triathlon and Track races. This peace of mind itself can translate to extra speed, especially on rough road surfaces, down hills or in crosswinds. The tapered cup shape allows the arm to slot in easily, but high sides gently lock the elbows into the time trial position, resulting in improved bike control. This can also enable the rider to reduce the grip pressure of their hands on the tribar extension hand grips.

 

This ergonomic high side design has been devised and refined over the last 5 years with the Ward Performance race team, clocking up British Cycling National Championship Team Pursuit medals - Bronze in Men's event in 2020, with Silver in Mens' event in 2022 and 2023 - in the process!


During the development phase of these armrests, an aluminium prototype version was tested in the Boardman Performance Centre Wind Tunnel and found to save 4 Watts in power to overcome aerodynamic drag @ 60 kph compared to 3T Comfort aluminium armrests. Aero bar extension position was kept constant along with rider body position and posture.

 

Manufactured from aluminium alloy and anodised black, the construction and finish of these armrests are both strong and durable.

 

Unique universal mounting pattern of High Side Ergonomic Armrests allow fitment to both front-rear and side-by-side screw configurations in M4, M5 and M6 sizes. So will they fit straight onto your bike, with no need for drilling? Most probably yes! Easy!

 

High Side Ergonomic Armrests come supplied with pre-cut adhesive backed foam pads to match the shape of each armrest section, which can be added if and where you want the padding. This allows you to tune the armrest width and comfort to your personal needs.

 

Common sized M5 mounting screws are included, though different screws may be required for your particular bike handlebar set-up. We cannot supply every type of screw, but let us know if you require a different spec. and we will see what we can do.
