Introduction to an Optimized Aerodynamic Cockpit

When every single second counts on the road or during a demanding Ironman, your position on the bike is the most crucial factor for your success. The Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit - Arm Cups are developed specifically for riders seeking the perfect balance between extreme comfort and technical superiority. This kit is not just a spare part, but an essential upgrade that significantly improves your aerodynamic cockpit. By offering a platform that is both stable and ergonomically correct, the Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit - Arm Cups give you the opportunity to perform your best, regardless of terrain or wind conditions.

Who is the Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit for?

This product is created for the ambitious cyclist and triathlete who knows that details make the difference. The Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit - Arm Cups are ideal for anyone using a time trial bike or a triathlon bike who wants to fine-tune their ergonomics. It is especially aimed at those who prefer a narrow elbow placement to reduce their frontal area and thereby increase speed. Whether you are a beginner in the sport or an experienced professional upgrading your triathlon equipment, you will experience a noticeable difference in your ability to maintain an aggressive position over longer periods.

Optimal Use in Training and Competition

The Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit - Arm Cups are designed to be used in the most demanding situations. During intensive training sessions, the high walls help reduce muscle fatigue, as you don't have to use energy to keep your arms in place. In competition situations, where your heart rate is high and focus is directed at the road ahead, this kit ensures that your forearms rest securely and stably. By using these advanced arm cups for time trials, you ensure that you don't slip out of position when you hit bumps in the asphalt or ride in strong crosswinds. This provides a sense of calm and confidence in riding that is hard to achieve with standard equipment.

Value Creation: Why Choose These Arm Cups?

Choosing the Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit - Arm Cups gives you access to advanced technology straight from the wind tunnel. The unique curvature is based on the popular Race+ model, but with increased side height that acts as a natural guide for your arms. The high-density EVA foam in the Race-H Ultra pads absorbs road vibrations, preventing numb hands and sore elbows. This is crucial for maintaining energy for the final run or the last kilometers toward the finish line. The surface is also designed to let air pass with minimal turbulence, making your overall setup more efficient.

Precise Adjustment with Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit - Arm Cups

Flexibility is the keyword when it comes to mounting the Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit - Arm Cups. With an extensive multi-hole pattern, the kit supports bolt spacings of 12.5 mm, 14 mm, 16.5 mm, 18.5 mm, and all the way up to 29 mm. This means it fits virtually all modern Profile Design aerobars. You also get a reach adjustment of 15 mm and a width adjustment of 18.5 mm, giving you the freedom to tailor your cockpit exactly to your biomechanical needs.

What are the benefits of RaceH armcups for triathlon?

The Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit is specifically developed to provide the rider with a significant advantage during both triathlon competitions and time trials on a time trial bike. The primary advantage of this kit is its unique ergonomic shaping, which is based on the popular curvature of the Race+ model, but further enhanced with significantly higher outer sides. These high sidewalls act as stable support, helping the cyclist maintain a very narrow and aggressive elbow position without compromising stability. When riding at high speed or over long distances, upper body fatigue can often cause arms to start sliding outwards, increasing wind resistance and reducing efficiency. With RaceH arm cups, a secure enclosure of the forearms is ensured, minimizing muscle tension in both the shoulders and neck, as the rider does not have to expend unnecessary effort to keep their arms in place. The included Race-H Ultra 10-5mm padding is made from high-density EVA foam, providing exceptional comfort and shock absorption, even on uneven road surfaces, allowing the rider to remain in an aerodynamic position for longer periods.

How do you adjust the Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit?

The Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit offers an extraordinary degree of adjustability, which is essential for achieving the perfect fit in the cockpit of a modern racing bike. The mounting surface is designed with a universal multi-hole pattern that supports a wide range of bolt spacings, including intervals of 12.5 mm, 14 mm, 16.5 mm, 18.5 mm, and all the way up to 29 mm. This flexibility means that the kit is compatible with almost all current and recent aerobar models from Profile Design. The adjustment possibilities do not stop at the mounting, however; the rider can fine-tune their position with a reach of 15 mm and a width adjustment of 18.5 mm, making it possible to tailor the setup to precise personal preferences and body type. To ensure a seamless installation, the kit includes all necessary hardware, including standard M6 x 12 mm flat-head mounting bolts and a special tapered M5 adapter washer. This adapter is particularly valuable as it enables the use of the arm cups on older or alternative aerobars that use smaller M5 bolts. With dimensions of 124 mm in length and 87 mm in width, as well as a variable stack height of between 4 mm and 8 mm, the user gets a product that can be adapted to any serious bike setup.

Which materials are included in the RaceH armrest set?

When it comes to construction and durability, the Profile Design RaceH Armrest Kit is built to withstand the demanding requirements of both training and elite competition. The cups themselves are manufactured from an advanced composite of injection-molded nylon and fiberglass, resulting in an extremely strong yet lightweight component weighing approximately 233 to 246 grams per pair. This material combination ensures that the armrests do not flex under pressure, providing a more direct sense of control over the bike. The surface is finished in a stylish matte black, which perfectly complements most modern carbon fiber frames and cockpit components. A central focus of the design has been aerodynamic optimization. The exterior of both the arm cup and the pad is shaped to present a smooth and even surface to the airflow. This reduces turbulence and wind resistance around the aerobars, which is critical for saving watts at high speeds. The padding in the Race-H Ultra model varies in thickness from 10 mm to 5 mm, strategically chosen to provide maximum cushioning where pressure is greatest while maintaining a low overall profile. By combining durable materials with an aerodynamic form factor, Profile Design delivers a solution that not only enhances comfort but also directly contributes to the cyclist's overall performance and speed on the road.
