  • Bar Ends

The Derecho pants are amazing - warm, waterproof, and reflective, and large enough to pull on over regular clothes. Also, I never felt like I was wearing garbage bags over my legs - they breathe well. The only thing I don't like about them is traipsing into the office in them. In 2010, I will carry them with me for slushy / snowy / rainy days, but ride in "normal" clothes for regular days.

The dapper dan ergo grips were soft, comfortable and eliminated most of the wrist pain that I was experiencing. I added bar ends to stretch out a bit, but didn't like that I had to move my hands to reach the brakes, so I switched to bullhorns.

The bullhorns are great - the same riding position that I was enjoying on the bar ends, but with brake levers right there.
