Hi all
I’m looking at fitting some carbon bars and stem to a new Bianchi Aria, fitted with Di2. The seller is suggesting Zipp SL 70 - however my eye was caught by the sleek and beautiful Vision Metron 5D bar. However I read on some bike forum that someone’s Vision Metron 5Ds cracked after less than 100 miles.
Do you have experience of either bar and what are your thoughts? I know the Vision Metron 5D is a bit more expensive but it’s the normal bar that’s fitted to an Oltre XR4 and also to the Bianchi Infiniti CV.

I’m looking for a lightweight, sturdy, yet stylish solution and am happy to be down in a flatter position. But above all, I want cables to be tidy, especially when it comes to fitting Di2.
Thanks.
