That is no longer correct, Trek now has a adapter kit to allow putting standard bar ends on the 7.xFX's with the ISOZone bars. See this thread http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...11-Trek-7-5-FX

Satellite Plus ISOZone Barend Adapter 428359 $11.99

I might add that adding bar ends to my 7.3fx has been a great help. Before my hands would go numb after 3 or 4 hours, now I have several hand positions. It has also helped my climbing on some of the steeper grades we have around here.
