Why don't you check this out? Not as expensive as brooks, pure cow leather though.

II think its more aesthetics, looks Vs a comfort criteria .s the BioCork much more comfortable than the Plastic Black/Grey one ?
I dont have a firm grip, more laying my hands on the bars,
till I need to grab the brake lever..

Biokork is made of 40% cork and vegetable oil vs black rubber made the conventional way.
2012 Brompton H6L raw lacquer, hub dynamo lights, eazy wheels, C bag. Spotted an incredibly small folded bike by chance in a bike store photo and had to find out what that bike was...a week later of obsessed daily research, I had my own Brompton!
Post-purchase mods: Ergon GP-1 biokork (grip shift version in S), Lightweights spoke reflectors, Sherpani Pasea saddle bag.
any eco green points are lost in shipping , fueling the ships and trucks.
But I have a lower total "cost" by at least using a renewable resource somewhere in the process.

Only the bio-cork GP1 , no bar end, is made in short and long out of the box..
the regular length, GP is all they package with the #3 and 5 bar end.
