Who has ridden these grips and how long are the barends?
I think I would like the barend on the GX3 better than the GC3 because it seems like the curved end(GC3) would get in the way(rub) top of hand/index finger in straight position. Don't know how long they actually are. No dimensions.
However, I believe I would like the feel of the grip of the GC3 better as it is larger with more support.
Why they haven't come out with a customizable combo grip/barend is beyond me. They all work together, they are just not for sale separately/interchangeable.
These are going on my commuter/all round bike.Opinions? Thanks.
