Are the bars too short? or the grips too long?

Getting hands right for how you ride is one of the first essentials. Up there with saddle style.
Moving outboard doesn’t help. They’re just right there in the way. A finger can’t fit between the grip and trigger. I’m guessing this design is more of a leisure thing meant to be incredibly “accessible.”

They’re currently as far inboard as possible due to the curve in the bar. From bar end to inside surface of shifter mount ring is 7”. From tip of trigger to inside mount surface is 3.75”. That doesn’t leave much finger room. Looking at pictures of some shifter/break combos, there is almost no trigger protruding out over the grip, so there’s definitely some variation out there.
