What bars are those? I want some, far better than bolting bar ends on and more comfortable wrapping them with gel tape.
Actually I have a set of 38's and one of the first things I did was to check and make sure I had the clearance (I do), but I want to play with these 28's for now.. my main road bike is using high pressure 23's and is definitely not useful for just about anything but asphalt.
