Title: Best barends for SM2 bars
Post by: average on May 02, 2007, 01:03:41 AM
Hey guys. I did a search but the results were kind of sketchy so I thought I'd ask some of the guys that've have done it. Which bar ends would you suggest?

I used the stock F model's for a while, then I changed to Motrax ones that I got from my local Cycle Gear.

If you do use those, be sure to apply some grip glue to the rubber part and be sure to tighten it down as much as you can. I lost three of the Motrax ones due to improper tightening, and one of the F model ones too.

I used bar end mirrors for my SM1s, it's so much easier to see behind me now.   :icon_razz:

I also use the stock ones, cause they are so heavy.  Without them, my hands go numb from vibration.  They do fall out sometimes though, I've lost 2 or 3 of them now.
