Difference between disc wheels and handlebars?
Difference between disc wheels and handlebars?
I do not have a disc wheel(s), but I do have a bull horn style handlebar, if I want to use it. However, if given a choice (and I know the I Aero may be able to detect a difference of wheels/handlebars.) would the disc wheel, over a standard wheel(s), be more or less effective, then a bullhorn (handlebar) w/ aero shifters? Generally, speaking, of course, since there are more expensive alternatives...I presume (I don't know for sure, though?).

aerobars, always. followed by an aero helmet. then wheels--and the front's more important than the rear.

More detail than the CyclingNews summary.
Some solid wind-tunnel data on wheels is available here.
Those data are for an isolated wheel, and since the rear wheel drafts the bike, it has substantially less influence.
