3T Aeronova Team Stealth Road Bicycle Handlebars Review

3T Aeronova Team Stealth Road Bicycle Handlebars

  • Weight: 220 g (42 cm)
  • Material: Carbon-fiber
  • Drop: 127 mm
  • Reach: 104 mm
  • Routing: Internal, Certification: CEN

Aeronova is a compact road drop with aero-section tops to complement the latest aero road bikes. The tops are a new aerofoil section designed for the least-possible drag permitted by UCI rules. Cable routing is internal for less drag, a sleeker appearance, and reliable setup of manual or electronic gear systems. The bend is like Ergonova’s, with 127 mm drop, and flares 6 to give good wrist clearance. This means width at the hoods is about 26 mm narrower than at the ends (the 42-cm model is 39.4 cm at the hoods). Aeronova Team Stealth is built in all-carbon-fiber and finished UD Gloss Black with 3T’s new Road’ brand graphics. It can be fitted with 3T Clip Ons for added versatility.

There’s a time and a place for loud and flashy. Sometimes that place isn’t the cockpit of your bike. The 3T ARX Team II Stealth Stem adds a touch of elegance to your cockpit with a subtle, matte black finish that downplays the Team stem’s stiff, lightweight performance. The Arx II Team continues the original’s tradition of simple, classic construction — but with a design that drops grams from its already low weight. The ARX Team takes the classic, tubular design of the ARX and further refines it with slightly flattened sides and a sculpted faceplate. The ARX II Team stem’s faceplate crimps in tighter at the top and bottom, which results in an ovalized appearance. However, even with the new shape, 3T was still able to retain its hallmark cut-out logo. This generation of the ARX also sees a more precise installation process than previous models. Instead of a traditional four-bolt Allen assembly, the ARX II features a Torx assembly at the faceplate and a single M6 bolt to clamp the stem to the steerer.
