hope the link works but if not just Google Isozone bar end adapter. The adapter allows you to put just about any bar end on...

great. thanks.

I've had my fx 7.2 for a year a now and it is serving me well. I upgraded to 28mm armadillos and it flies. Like another poster mentioned, about the only negative is hand positions on rides over an hour. I would recommend to get the basic 7.2, very solid, comfortable, shifts well and looks good in black. But that's also because Im already looking to upgrade to a road bike. Basically buy a basic one and save your funds is what I'm saying. If I do upgrade in the future, I will def still keep my 7.2 as a commuter.. Great bike for the money.
