Dr Pete- If you were using it in a race, how does it go from Swim to T1 to Bike to T2 to Run... I hear it is one touch to toggle from swim to bike to run I think, but does it account for Transistions?

Bar end recommendations?

What are some good end bars that you guys use?

Also how do you install them? Do you have to cut your grip? or do they go over the end of the grip?

Where to find "end" caps for bars?
