3rd: The main grips were also too close to thee body, which makes for a great upright position, but for some riskier downhills, it can be quite uncomfortable.

In the end, I went back to my flat bars and attached the shown bar ends. Very adjustable
Thank you for those insights - very helpful. I do like the bar ends that you mentioned.

Bob - Similar to what MarcusT provided above, do you have any recommendations? I'm certainly open to ideas and suggestions. Thank you.
