I've got these on my bike (only in black) and so far so good. And they are tough. The end caps on my bars are knarled from my last spill and these bar-ends does not have a mark on them.

Best you will EVER find is the Cane Creek Ergo II.

ja I had the cane creaks - very nice but still not conviced about the part the sticks out behind the handlbar, kinda gets in the way a little when your hands are on the handlebars.

 

also they're too heavy. but will look good when clipped onto lock on grips.

Those Cane Creeks are very naas but pricey!

 

I use the 'equivalent' RAVX (Ergo X I think?) ones, always used bar ends and like the extra position it gives my hands when riding long rides. Use them often on tough climbs!

 

My son on the other hand doesn't have them, doesn't like them and tells me they look nerdy but hey I'm old and I can do what I like!

I refuse to do that! I went to the ends of the earth to find a flat bar with enough width, for a while I thought I might have to do that but I just couldn't.

Just saw this thread now, was on leave at the time.

 

I use the Cane Creek Ergo 2's and love them, but last nights bushwacking experience through Alberts Farm got me thinking about whether I should remove them or not.

 

MichH, what does Geoff the Aussie have to say about them ?

Use the Cane Creek's as well... on risers... na nana na na!!!

 

More importantly though, who's cut their bars shorter and by how much?

Shorter, are you kidding, I had to look high and bloody low to find a 600mm flat bar, ain't no way I'm cutting the damn thing down!
