ok first I put the bar ends on. it was really easy
hit the end of the bar with a hammer to 'punch through' the end of the grip. this minimized the amount of grip i would cut.
shoved a thin metal rod around the grip until it came out the other side.
put a splash of rubbing alcohol on the bar/ grip and gave twist. I was worried they would stick but they didn't.
loosened the break and the grip shifters and moved everything in.
put the end on and lightly clamped it.
moved the break and shifter back out.
then clammed it hard


the next morning the grips were tight. bar ends were tight,
but the bar wasn't tight enough. I felt both bar ends move at the same time. oops

rode 5 miles well it made a significant difference. I could now get out of the saddle and I had the extra positions.
