FastTT Aero Bar Installation Guide – TT Bar
TRIMMING THE BAR ENDS (AS REQUIRED)
Hold the bar end as you would when riding, resting the
bottom of your hand on the top surface of the
extension.
It should be a snug fit with NO GAPS between the
base of your arm/hand and the bar extension.
Measure how much bar end you require to fit your
shifter, taking into account the extra length the
shifter adds to the bar.
Mark the top of the bar ‘A’ including shifter body
length. Deduct the length of the shifter from ‘A’ and
mark position ‘B’. The difference between ‘A’ and ‘B’
should equal the length of the shifter (excluding the
insertable section).
Trimming the bar ends to the correct length is essential for accurately measuring the UCI
dimensions and should be completed before moving to the next step. When measuring, the
shifter buttons must be inserted and included in the measurements for UCI compliance.
Measure twice, cut once!
Use a hacksaw or Dremel cutting tool to trim off the unwanted bar.
