Bar Ends for Giant Rove3

Hello,
I've been trying to find some bar ends for my bike...2013 Giant Rove3. I want to start riding more and my hands and wrist start to hurt after awhile. Having problems finding some for 31.8 bars. Are they made that size or do I have to get different grips? If I'm not mistaken the 31.8 is the diameter for the bar by the stem...so the bar size the grip is on could be ...?
Thanks,
Sherry

(25.4, or ) 31.8 is the center bulge , tends to7/8", 22.2mm on the rest of the bars .

Consider Ergon GP5 grips , they integrate a comfortable broad grip, + a bar end in an almost seamlessly designed combination.

I have the Ergon GP3's which are great grips. Ergon makes quality stuff. When putting on any of their bar ends don't forget to move brake levers and shifters over a bit on the handle bar to allow the Ergon fastener to clamp on the bar not just the grip….. I find that a few people reviewing these on Amazon talk about not being able to tighten and they slip on bars.
