As long as you have bar ends what ever brand they may be in my opinion there a must have item on flat bar bikes. The extra hand positions and being able to hold on to them standing while pedaling is a must.
I agree. I started last year on a mountain bike and spent 3 months riding and thinking what I wanted when I went to buy a new bike. Bar ends were top on the list. A must have if you have a flat bar bike.
