I measured my bars and they have a diameter of 40mm its a Felt Ar5. I can only see 31.8mm on chain reaction. I only want a cheap set. Will thr 31.8 adjust to 40mm?

    Have you got a handlebar with a flattened/aero top section? In which case, you need an aerobar that clamps to the centre bulge either side of the stem - 31.8mm has been pretty standard for yonks.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    I'm guessing you have measured them wrongly then - as the Felt uses a standard 31.8 clamp size...
