I havent had much luck looking in catalogs...
Anyone know of a ski-tip style bar end, where the tip curves upwards almost vertically? Almost as much as a pursuit bar would?
Most designs have the tip bend inwards at 35-40* from horizontal (when seen from the front), i'm looking for something closer to 80*
Thanks

Do some Google Image searches, like stubby bar ends, tho I have never seen what you are describing.

Access to a machine shop? If so, problem solved. Otherwise, there exists NOTHING like you described...

I have many shortened bar ends. Machine/weld shop like stated above. Easy. Suggest choosing something long so you have material to work with. Or short so you just, cut twist up, weld, paint.

But won't that be kinda goofy? what gives.

Back in the early 90s, scott (I think) made a pair of clip on drops that were used to made a second pair of drops narrower than the bars themselves (aero?), maybe you can find a pair of those and cut them to get the ski end you're looking for.

Avenir makes some good end bars.

The intention, is to have bar ends that convert a mtb flat bar into a pursuit bar. this would have advantages over a normal 1piece pursuit bar, in that the width can be customized, also since it would be 22mm instead of the usual 24 you can use many commonly available mtb shifters on it(instead of expensive paul thumbies)

Something like this?

Yeah but WAY less ergo and way more classic drop.

Edit: This- goes about where cross levers get mounted these days relative to the stem.

Pictures when it's all done please!!
