Bike only it's anything between 12-20w depending on what you're going from/to:

Obviously with the ENVE bars/clips it will be less of a jump than standard round tube bars with clips that sit high, and some of that difference will be reduced when you stick a rider on.

Out of curiosity....
What is the rough aero penalty of a dropbar vs a base bar?
My Felt AR1 will have very close to the geometry of the A1 tri bike, when I flip the seatpost around. So I should be able to get into in a prime aero position. The bike cant be far off being as aero as a low end TT bike. But I'll have a pair of Enve SES road bars With Extensions, instead of TT bars. These do have a neat looking clamp, all cabling is hidden, and will eventually be fed out of the back of the stem. Plus I have a tririg front brake, so that cable isnt out in the Wind as such.
I've really thought about this, and its definitely the most practical set-up. In terms of the sort of events I'll be entering.
