Origin 8 dropbar ends. I tried them on my Mezzo but wasn't entirely happy with the riding position so I am now using long flat bar ends for more reach. I have no issues with Origin 8 bar ends, I just dont think drop bars work for me on my particular bike. One day I would like to try bull bars if the shifters and levers can be manoeuvred round the bends in the bars.
