Please forgive me for turning this into classifieds, but if anyone is interested I'll part with it for £320. Comes with the spacer and D-wedge for Propel, and long standard mount (plastic). Can ship anywhere in the world or leave it to eBay if you prefer (make an offer to get the advertised price - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/375830353683).
The EXS cockpit was a compromise but I just chose to go "full" aero again. That means a longer stem and the Pro vibe pursuit handlebar 36cm version.
I think a lot of people are selling them here because there is still a huge demand and this is also a way to help other weight weenies. There is nothing wrong with the cockpit.

Out of the options available, the EXS is by far the one with least compromises:
Roval Rapide: External/Internal cable routing, weird default sizes, availability
Darimo: Light, crap quality control, risk of it breaking, long wait
EXS: Availability
Avian Falcon: Light, weird looks near stem, flexy (for bigger riders)
Tavelo: Heavier than others, less known brand.

Half price of from a brand OEM, suits most of the bikes, quality is good, looks are mean if you are into aero shapes. What's not to love? More over what are your alternatives? Avian is having QC issues lately, Farsports looks are not that good, Polymer is ugly and more expensive, Cadex is expensive.
Only Tavero Avro is close.
Is there anything to be added to $450 for taxes and delivery to the UK?
Sure the Tavelo is 30-40g heavier, but it's only $300 all inclusive, looks decent with no visible branding, finishing quality is superb, and it's available in loads of sizes at short notice. My only gripe is that I'd prefer a custom shaped top cap instead of having to fit my own standard round one.
I've got an Avian Canary on another bike, and it's not a noodle in the slightest. I don't have any problem with the aesthetics, but the Falcon could be preferred for a more aero look. Main concern with these now is the apparent lack of quality control judging by some of the photos posted here.
The Aerover is probably the best looking option though and makes me think of one of these.

That's interesting. I actually went with Tavelo because of availability but also because I wanted to have the option of any top cap I wanted. I will say after riding on them, they are plenty stiff and well made. I also personally think they looks sleeker than EXS (no hump in the middle).

EXS is just sleeeeeeek.
I added another garmin mount underneath the Ti for quick and sleek light attachment.

You are going to dazzle the oncoming traffic unless you intend to run your light with a Garmin-male-to-GoPro adapter. Even the StZVO compliant lights call for being mounted parallel to the ground, and yours will be pointing 6-7 degrees up.

Nope and nope cuz I'm running the setup like this. This is took when I was using the previous Farsports bar but same idea. The light itself has cutoff line.
