for FastTT Tri bars.

MEASURING YOUR CURRENT SETUP
Before you start installation, take a full set of measurements of your existing bar setup for later
reference and UCI compliance.
Key measurements to take are:
Length from centre of bottom bracket to bar
tip end.
Height difference from top of elbow pad
(measured at the fore/aft centre) to top tip
of bar end.
1. Height of top of elbow pad from the
ground (measured at fore/aft centre).
2. Top of bar end from the ground.
SECTION A - MEASURING

Distance between outside edges of elbow
pads. Note the distance where you
measured relative to the bottom bracket so
you can repeat the same measurement for
your FastTT bars.
Width between bar ends.
Once measured, remove your old extension bars, but leave the brackets mounted to the base
bars (if applicable).
Elbow pad measurements for UCI compliance should be taken at the fore/aft centre of the
pad. Please refer to the UCI website for measurement rules based on rider height:

SETTING UP FOR UCI RULES
For UCI legal setup you need to measure the distance from the centre of the bottom bracket to
the tip of the bars or finger hook. You will also need to measure the height from the centre of
the elbow pad to the top of the bars or finger hooks. If you don't have access to a measuring jig
you can use a vertical wall as suggested in the diagram below, but ensure the wall is exactly 90°
vertical (check with a spirit level).

TRIMMING THE BAR ENDS
Hold the bar end as you would when
riding, resting the bottom of your hand
on the top surface of the extension.
It should be a snug fit with NO GAPS
between the base of your arm/hand and
the bar extension.
Measure how much bar end you require
including the finger hook.
Mark the top of the bar ‘A’ including finger
hook length. Deduct the length of the finger
hook from ‘A’ and mark position ‘B’. The
difference between ‘A’ and ‘B’ should equal
the length of the finger hook (excluding the
insertable section).
Trimming the bar ends to the correct length is essential for accurately measuring the UCI
dimensions and MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE MOVING TO THE NEXT STEP. When measuring,
the bar end plugs must be inserted and included in the measurements for UCI compliance.
Measure twice, cut once! Use a hacksaw or Dremel cutting tool to trim off the unwanted bar
end.

Placement options
FastTT aero bars offer a wide range of bolt holes
and bracket placement options for you to find your
preferred setup.
Fitting adjustable angled risers
If fitting FastTT adjustable angled risers, bolt the
bottom blocks of the risers to your base bar or
spacer stack. Tighten to maximum 6Nm.
Add the top block to the bottom block and
insert the M6 locking bolt. Adjust to your
preferred angle and tighten the bolt to a
maximum torque of 12-13Nm.
Insert two 10mm bolts into the
slots in the top side of the
mounting bracket. Only button
head bolts can be used. If you
replace them with hex cap screws
the bracket WILL NOT sit flush with
the bar base.

Fitting the mounting brackets to FastTT angled riser and Profile Design brackets
Using the supplied M5 button head bolts, attach the bracket to the top block of the FastTT
Adjustable angled riser or to the Profile Design wing bracket, depending on the mounting
option you selected. At this stage only tighten the bolts enough to be able to move them with
a little effort. This will make the inwards/outwards angle adjustment easier. You MUST fully
tighten to bolts after adjusting the bars.
Fitting to all other bikes with the Universal bracket
If you selected the Universal mounting option, you need to drill bolt holes in the bracket
matching the bolt pattern of your mounting element (NOTE: DRILLING IS ONLY REQUIRED FOR
THE UNIVERSAL BRACKET). The Universal bracket has a measurement grid on the underside to
assist you.

Select the appropriate size drill bit based on the
diameter of the mounting bolts you are using.
Installation is easier if you drill the holes 0.5mm wider
than the bolt threads. Once drilled, bolt the bracket to
your mounting pad or stack. Inwards/outwards angle
will be determined by where you drill the holes. If you
want to make small adjustments to the angle you can
modify the holes slightly with a file or Dremel.
Unless you ordered FastTT long bolts you will need to provide the correct length and thread
diameter bolts for your bike. Tighten the bolts to the torque specified by the bolt supplier or
your owner’s manual.
Bolt the bracket to the base of the bar in your
preferred position. You can easily make changes by
removing the bracket and repositioning it. There are 4
holes in the bracket. A MINIMUM of 3 bolts should be
used on each side for safety and strength (4 bolts are
recommended).
Adjusting inwards/outwards bar angle
With the bars bolted to the bracket, you can adjust the inwards/outwards angle to suit. There
is up to 40° of adjustment available. Once adjusted to the correct position, remove the bars
and tighten the 2 bolts that fix the mounting bracket to the angled riser, Profile Design bracket
or your mounting pad to a maximum of 6Nm.
