The decision to ban the use of aero bars and extensions among the elite men’s and women’s racers at Unbound Gravel 2023 has led riders to look for other ways to add comfort when adopting a more aero riding position.
Over the 200-mile course of the elite event, aerodynamics play an important role and, in previous years, aero bars or extensions have been de rigueur among the top racers, with last year’s winner Ivar Slik equipping his Wilier Rave SLR with extensions custom 3D printed to fit the bike.
