A couple years ago, 3T's well-loved Ventus aerobar was declared illegal for road events (but still perfectly OK for triathlon). Despite what would normally be a product-killer, the Ventus has continued to thrive, and now 3T has released a successor to the bar, the Ventus II, just for triathletes. Updates include more drop, Di2 compatibility, and all-carbon construction.


The Ventus II is super slick, but has a tad more drop than I like.

The new Ventus doesn't have integrated brake levers, so it's Di2 ready.

Like its predecessor, the Ventus has pretty minimal extension hardware, which is both clean and relatively easy to adjust.

The expanded cable ports in the back suggest Di2-readiness.

The underside of the bar is super clean - no cables or stem hardware.

The Ventus II extension hardware is even clean from the underside, just like the orginal Ventus.
