For time-trialists, track racers, and triathletes enhanced body position and wind resistant race gear is a key factor in raising the bar for a more aerodynamic ride. Have you ever considered the wind flow that grazes the usually tabular shape of the end of your bar? Aero bar end plugs are the optimal solution!

Bar end plugs create smooth air flow transitions that allow wind currents to easily pass over and through bar end blockages.

Predator's conical shaped Spire Bar End plugsare the perfect aero bar end for cyclists. Each plug, when inserted into the end tip of a handlebar, creates a more aerodynamic wind flow over and under any track bar or bar extension.

In contrast, Predator's hooked-shaped bar end speed plug is an useful addition for track cyclists looking to lock and tuck their hands for improved body position. This bar end plug was designed with an expanding wedge that "bites" the inside of the bar, securing placement from any pulling forces.

Each aero bar end plug is finished in ceramic coating. The plugs fit snugly into most handlebar systems and are secured by two O-ring locks.
