Collection: Spacer

When it comes to optimizing your cockpit, it’s often the small adjustments that make the biggest difference. Spacers play a crucial role in fine-tuning the height and angle of your extensions and armpads, which directly impacts your aerodynamics, comfort and performance. Whether you’re a triathlete, time trialist or a passionate road rider focused on marginal gains, properly adjusting your position is crucial – and that’s where spacers come into play.

At Transition Zone, we stock spacers from some of the most innovative and aerodynamically tested brands on the market: Drag2Zero, Profile Design, Zipp and 51 Speedshop. These brands are all known for delivering precise, lightweight and functional solutions that can be adapted to your needs – both in training and on race day.

Spacers are typically used to raise the arm pads and extensions on your tricycle, allowing you to achieve a more ergonomic and aerodynamic position. They allow you to adjust the cockpit height in millimeters, which is essential for both comfort and wattage savings. The correct height can take the strain off your neck, shoulders and back – while maintaining a more closed frontal profile, reducing drag.

For example, spacers from Drag2Zero and 51 Speedshop can be combined in precise intervals to achieve the perfect stack. Both 51 Speedshop and Drag2Zero are known for their collaboration with professional triathletes and world-class bike fitters, and their spacers are wind tunnel tested to ensure minimal turbulence around the cockpit area.

Whether you want 5 mm, 10 mm or more extreme lifts, you will find flexible solutions among our selection - so you can build your cockpit exactly how you want it.

An important aspect of spacers is compatibility – and this is where our brands deliver strongly. Profile Design offers spacer systems that fit most of their aerobars and base bars, with the ability to stack and combine at different heights. These spacers are often part of modular cockpit solutions that can be easily adapted and replaced without having to change the entire setup.

Zipp also offers precision spacer kits that match their aerobar systems, both in terms of fit and aesthetics. Zipp has a strong focus on integration, so their spacers follow the same design lines as the rest of the components – for a streamlined and visually complete setup.

At Transition Zone we also stock spacers from 51 Speedshop, known for their ergonomically optimized approach. Their spacer systems allow for small but important adjustments to pad height, angle and width, making it possible to fine-tune the position for maximum comfort and performance – for both elite and age group triathletes.

When you buy spacers at Transition Zone, you get more than just components. We understand that cockpit optimization is about the whole and individual needs. That's why we only carry spacers from brands we trust - and that we know meet the highest standards for quality, durability and performance.

We are happy to help you find the right spacers for your existing cockpit – and we have extensive experience setting up Drag2Zero, Profile Design, Zipp and 51 Speedshop. Whether you fit your bike yourself or work with a bikefitter, our products give you the freedom to customize and test different solutions until you find the perfect setup.

Do you need to raise your arm pads by 5, 10 or 20 mm? Do you need to angle your extensions a little more upwards? Do you want to improve comfort without compromising aerodynamics? Spacers are the solution – and we have the selection and expertise to help you achieve your goals.
