I added some really nice bar ends to my stock Xootr Swift bars--and the fit is perfect. These are the best fitting bar ends with my hands I have ever ridden.---I have easily had 20 different bar ends since 1987. I like bar ends better than bullhorn bars because I have a wider hand position on the flats with bar ends. The bend in the bars irritates my hands when riding the flats.

You can move the stem up and down the steerer tube. Longer steerer tubes are available from xootr and you can go to an angle up stem. On a recent ride I had a HUGE headwind on the way back (about 18 miles left). I lowered the stem on the steerer tube about an inch to get a little lower in the wind and it helped.

I am not a fan of going to an adjustable stem as they are usually about a half a pound extra weight.

Warning

There are two common diameters of handlebars where the bars meet the stem 25.4 and 31.8. If you change stem or bars be sure to get the right size.

Comfortable seats

After 10 rides of 20 minutes or more your butt will get in bike seat condition---don't buy a new seat before getting 10 rides in 3-4 weeks.

Most good bike shops will let you take a seat out for a test ride on a dry day and if it does not work for you return it and try another.
