Anyone got a set of those small stubby bar-end things, the ones that look like a pair of ergonomic carbon-fibre turds on the end of you handlebars?

I need some of them. They can be made of alu too, just that I only ever remember seeing carbon ones.

'bar ends'

Most are alloy, any bike shop in the street or online will have them, common as muck.

Shouldn't cost you much more than a tenner.

thanks tynan, but I am already quite familiar with the concept of the bar-end.

I was looking for a particular type, which are short, stubby, ergo-shaped and usually made of carbon.

Ive just forgotten what brand they are and cant find any.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
