Whatever came as stock. I will check them out.
She may also benefit from long bar ends that get positioned more in the middle of the handlebar, so that she can grab on to these at times for different hand positions.
I was thinking about that, but I'll have to go back to the aluminum handlebars. Not the end of the world, but ...
You can wrap these bars in handlebar tape, but you may need to go back to an alloy handlebar to make the bar ends able to be tightened.
Yup. Carbon isn't even compatible with those little things that it came with.
Maybe she needs aero bars.
(I've been trying to get her to consider trekking bars or a Jones H-bar.)
