Aergo handlebar

The need for adjustment

Every cyclist has their optimal seating position to ensure a pleasant and comfortable ride. However, depending on the type of bike tour, the mood of the rider and even the weather situation, this position may change. When riding into the wind a forward position is best, at other times an upright position is preferred. From time to time, cyclists also need to be able to adjust their position, as easily as possible. Already various different adjustable stems are on the market, but these often require the use of tools for adjustment.

The Aergo adjustable handlebar solves a problem faced by many cyclists: their position on the bicycle never seems to be just right. With the Aergo handle-bar, the riding position of the rider can be adjusted during the bike ride, at the push of a button.For a comfortable ride... press the handgrip button and pull the Aergo back to create an upright position.

Need a aerodynamic position against a strong headwind? Push the Aergo handlebar forward. You can choose from 10 different positions for instant and optimal adjustment to the specific situation.

history

The development started with a handlebar that was meant for professional triathletes. This racing handle bar could be changed from the conventional racing position towards the aerodynamic triathlon position. Although the advantages of this design are numerous, it still hasn’t been approved by the UCI.

However, the concept, which was patented 2 years ago, also fits other bicycle types perfectly. The Aergo handlebar is the result of further development of this idea - a handlebar for both city and tracking bikes.

The working principle

The core of the Aergo consists of a patented synchronizing system, which also functions as the bearing system of both halves of the handlebar. This system is self lubricating and has a pre-tension system, ensuring lasting play-free operation.The locking system is controlled by a push button on the grip, or a twist-grip. The locking mechanism is actuated through the handlebar tube, guaranteeing a long and trouble free operation, as it cannot be damaged by external forces.The mechanism is completely encapsulated by the housing, shaped into unity with the handlebar and steering pin. New model

IDbike recently has developed a new model of the Aergo handlebar. This model has a grip shift control to activate the handlebar adjustment. Added is further an adjustable stem with which the bicylist can adjust the handlebar to his needs.

Also the handlebar has been redesigned completely:
