"The Tulas allowed me to quickly find a fast and comfortable position. They were easy to setup in a wide range of positions, depending on which extensions were chosen, to give me the best setup, with significantly lower drag than before."
Julia Shaw, March 2010
Olympic Gold medalist, Kristin Armstrong, achieves the most aerodynamic position using USE's Tula Aerboars. See her in action in the wind tunnel.
"There's one bar here that stands out clearly, in terms of design, details, aerodynamics, weight and cost. Its radical design may take some getting used to, and its lack of adjustability won't suit everyone, but in terms of all-round performance the USE Tula has few competitors. And on performance for price it's unbeatable."

PRODUCT ADJUSTABILITY
The Rock & Roll clamps perform many functions; they hold the armrests and extensions in place, as well as allowing for independent angle adjustment from the Rock & Roll joint feature.
The Rock & Roll feature allows the user to set the pads at different angles, independently to the base bar. This adjustment allows for infinite adjustment - comfort and aerodynamic set up.
EXTENSIONS
The length of your chosen TULA extensions can be adjusted by their feed through the Rose-joint, allowing you plenty of play when finding your perfect attack position. If you want to make the extensions shorter, cut with a hacksaw / steerer cutter guide and trim to length at the rear of the extension.
These are the extension options
- Carbon Straight
- Carbon S-Bend
- Aluminium Straight (black anodised)
