Ok, so i know pedals are the next thing i need desperately but i was given a £5 voucher for wiggle for secret santa at christmas... funds wont allow the pedals this month but i could spare the £10 needed to get the bar ends i wanted
So these have now been ordered, hopefully will finish off the handlebar upgrades nicely

They look nice but I could never see myself spending that on a couple of bar caps, Besides they probably add as much weight as the bar swap saved! (OK 34g isn't quite that bad)
I love the description on the wiggle website though...Bar ends are used by cross country mountain bikers, touring cyclists and long distance riders who require an alternate riding position, rather than just the grips. Bar ends offer a different position to the standard flat bar grips by allowing you to rotate your wrists by 90 degrees and allowing you to be able to pull harder on the climbs when out of the saddle, or just to relieve the boredom of the single position when on longer distance rides
They seem to have got confused!Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -

When its something you love very much, your pride and joy, its nice just to spend that extra bit more on some nice little extras that help complete the bike and make it yours!

Should look good matey! 0 -
I got the red hope grip doctors. Worth every penny, for no other reason than they look trick. Other than that they serve no purpose other than adding weight0
