Are aero bars or TT bars uncool for gravel riding and racing especially in events like Dirty Kanza? I go into the science of why we think some things are cool and others are uncool and apply it to this aero bar situation. I also talk about how much faster aero bars are. This video is a response to GCN's most recent GCN show and Geoff Kabush. Be sure to like and subscribe!
