Profile Design Airstryke V2 Clip-On Aerobars Ano Matte Black — Aluminum, Flip-Up Armrests & Adjustable Stack

The Profile Design Airstryke V2 clip-on aerobars are lightweight aluminum extensions with flip-up armrest brackets that let you use your drops normally while giving a fully adjustable aero position when needed.

Built to solve common fit and usability complaints with traditional clip-on bars, the Airstryke V2 brings a practical mix of adjustability and convenience to road bikes used for triathlon, time trial, or fast group rides. Constructed from aluminum with an anodized matte black finish, these bars give a stable aero platform while the patented flip-up brackets keep the armrests out of the way when you need full access to the base bar or tops. With adjustable stack and reach and an uncomplicated clamp system, the Airstryke V2 is designed for riders who want to add aero capability without permanently changing cockpit geometry.

How do the flip-up brackets improve everyday riding?

The patented flip-up brackets are spring-loaded to hold the armrests elevated whenever you’re not in the aerobars, so your hands can reach the drop-bar tops or the base bar unobstructed. This design avoids the common problem of armrests covering the tops and forcing you to ride on the pads uphill. When you want to go aero, the armrests fold down quickly and lock into riding position for secure support.

• Spring-loaded flip-up brackets free the base bar and tops for normal use.
• Quick fold-down action lets you transition to aero rapidly.
• Stable armrest support once deployed for confident extension use.

Will these aerobars fit my drop-bar road bike and how adjustable are they?

The Airstryke V2 clamps to standard round or slightly tapered drop bars and offers multiple adjustments for stack and reach so you can fine-tune your aeroposition. Adjustability handles moderate changes in posture without major cockpit reconfiguration, though some riders pair a dedicated seatpost or saddle setup for race-specific positions. The clamp range and hardware let you dial in extension length and pad height to match your preferred setup.

• Adjustable stack and reach for personalized fit and comfort.
• Compatible with most standard drop bars via secure clamp system.
• Recommended pairing with an alternate seatpost/saddle for aggressive race setups.

What materials and build details affect performance and weight?

Constructed from aluminum, the Airstryke V2 balances strength and light weight for everyday riding and racing use. The anodized matte black finish provides corrosion resistance and a low-glare surface. The unit’s hardware and pivot points are engineered for reliable clamping and repeatable adjustments under load, so the bars feel solid when you’re fully committed to the aero position.

• Aluminum construction for a strong, lightweight aero platform.
• Ano matte black finish for durability and reduced glare.
• Precision hardware and pivots designed for secure clamping and consistent fit.

How easy is installation and what should I consider before fitting?

Installation is straightforward: clamp the unit to your handlebar, set desired reach and stack, and tighten the hardware. Because clip-on aerobars move your contact point forward, consider a race-specific saddle/seatpost or a quick alternative setup to avoid compromising your regular road fit. The Airstryke V2 is an effective add-on for riders who want a removable aero solution without permanently altering the base cockpit.

• Simple clamp installation to standard drop bars with included hardware.
• Fine-tune reach and stack before tightening for proper ergonomics.
• Consider a dedicated saddle/seatpost combo for race-focused geometry adjustments.

Who is this for: The Profile Design Airstryke V2 is aimed at road riders who want a removable, performance-focused aero option—triathletes, time-trial entrants, and cyclists who want occasional aero benefits without committing to a full aero cockpit. It’s especially useful for riders who value the ability to use the drops and tops freely between efforts, and for anyone looking for a durable aluminum clip-on with practical adjustability and a sleek matte finish.
