On the subject of the mirror, they work best when mounts as far out as possible, I note he has the mirror on a stalk here which would make it work well, with my setup the mirror goes right on the bar end on those superwide bars and works really well too, I wouldnt be without a mirror now, they are great (as previously discussed)personally I'd have thought something like this would be a better option if you want lots of handlebar positions. (as used by Mark Baumont on his world ride), it's even got a mirror .
Yea finishing touches to be added this afternoon, I just needed to be sure the concept worked for me before all those touchesWhy no bar-tape/grips & missing bar-end plug?
Also some good news, I think I have managed to agree a 3 day working week, so plenty of time to get ready for the Dartmoor Classic, I generally train alone and because its on my doorstep, I will ride the entire route at least once before the day, I can also practice all the big climbs.....excitingYea finishing touches to be added this afternoon, I just needed to be sure the concept worked for me before all those touches
FIL had them on his tourer, loved them, I found them bleedin awkward, but on the plus side, I got some nice bar end shifters and brake levers out of installing them for him.Thinking of those for my ebike - Ergotech Contest
I declare these drop add ons a spectacular success and I shall be a beacon for others to follow They certainly work for me and I predict that I am ahead of the curve and these will become a trendy must have addition cost £hundreds in the near future, seriously just done about 45 miles with them....brilliantView attachment 734021View attachment 734022View attachment 734023View attachment 734024

He's a weight weenie.Why no bar-tape/grips & missing bar-end plug?
Drop position?Yes they look ok too, I like to have a drop position for headwinds, but those bars look good to me too
