If you call their UK office, they can send you out the cockpit you think you'll need in advance, creating an account for you with a debit on it. Then once you get the bike, remove and ship back the cockpit you don't want, and the debit on your account is cancelled.
I swapped the cockpit on my Aeroad 3 times like this (indecisive, and then had a bike fit). It's relatively expensive to ship back to Germany with tracking and insurance, sadly.
Ultimately just having a normal stem and bars is better in terms of being able to cheaply change your fit, but I'm vein and the bike has Di2 so I wanted the Aerocockpit with the recess for the junction box!
How long did it take for the new cockpit to arrive?
Worried they’ll turn around and say they can’t supply it and leave me with a bike I can’t ride.
