I dont think the 3T integra will fut because of the big nose.


I dont mind reshaping the front of the 3T Integra if need be, another plus is its been said that the Di2 box can fit inside, here is a shot of the underside.

I wonder if the new TriRig Sigma X would fit. That would be my first choice for sure.

I think the bit in front of the clamping area might project too far forward.

Also, I don't trust a one-bolt interface with the steerer. Two is one, one is none.

The new TriRig Sigma X look cool but I but I don't know if my BMC TMR01 can pull it off and still look good ?

I am not sure what you mean by curvy. I have the Zipp bar and the angles look similar across the top, it just looks good, unlike that Cervelo bar. Is it meant for drafting triathlons? 3T made something like that with a really wide top as a forearm rest.
That Cervelo bar is lets say polarizing.
How would you mount a computer?

@drchull when looking overhead at the 2 you can see that the Zip bar has more curved lines at the back, the S5 bar lines are straighter. A Garmin will strap to the area in front of the stem.


@BmanX I will to start off with, but I am thinking I will not like the look based on photos I have seen.

It just looks out of place with such an aero bar and bolts sticking up and below.

I think the clamping area on the vibe sprint stem may be too wide to fit, I agree with the above the the puzzle piece stem would look the best. Weight shouldn't really be a concern if you're going for a bar like this...

Have you considered having the stem bonded to the bar? Berk or Firefly do a really good job of this and if they filled the space on the bar I think not only would the bar be more aero bit it would look fantastic!
