Thanks so much for your offer, James. I think I will look for longer bar ends which extend forward further to try to approximate my stretched out position on my road bike. IF that doesn't work, then I might be forced to do as you did and install road handlebars...only then I'm going to have to change the brakes and shifters as well. Anyway the bar ends are worth a shot. Arthur.
