what kind of ergo grips are those? where did you get them?
thanks

They're cheap knock-offs that were on sale at my LBS... I don't recall the brand. They're okay, but quite soft and not nearly as good as the Ergon grips that I have on two other bikes (one pair of
GC2s and one pair of
GC3s). If I had my druthers I'd be using Ergon
GP1s, which don't have an integrated barend and would therefore be ideal for trekking bars. Alternatively one could just wrap the bars with tape all the way to the controls.
