Those bars are awesome. Are those clamps hard to find?

Yo. If that solution solves a problem you have. Cool. Otherwise, it's a swagger-jack.

if you can't do the right click/save option,
hit the "print screen" button (if you are on a PC)
open up an image editing program (photoshop, etc)
ctrl+v (paste command)
crop image, then save as whatever.jpg

i just did a screen capture to get the image. i can tell those are chopped flat bars with some sort of bar ends on them, they just look so weird.

Option 1: measure your current bar diameter, go to a hardware store and look in the plumbing section.
Option 2: Edit the extra bits off a pair of aerobars:

I'd be mildly sketched about riding them ALL the time (more things clamped together on your bike = more points of failure), but if you wanted an extra-narrow ride, that'd be the way to go.

big boy phil 09-19-06 04:46 PM

I took some screen shots of the pics. Do you think it would be a problem if I posted them up here? I don't want anyone getting mad about it...

Naw. The two on the end are wearing Nike AF1 "Fantastic 4" pack. The upper is clear plastic. The middle are some Addidas All Odd Pack Metro Attitude.

Don't ask me how I know this.
