Re:
I used to have em on everything I rode, loved them but god were they narrow
so much so the Brake levers had to go one higher than the other when running in conjunction with Gripshift
I'm sure they're narrower than what Mike Muz rides with these days
looking forward to seeing a few pic's pop up and a trip down memory lane

Re: Re:
How can bar ends be narrow? Surely it's the bars that are narrow

Re: Re:
USE bar ends unlike most others bolt slightly inboard onto a USE bar and don't clamp to the end of the bar. The bar is drilled for the barends to bolt straight on, this narrows the overall length, but doesn't ovalise or crimp the end of a lightweight bar like some bar ends do.
I hope that makes sense?

Re:
seeing those brakes on picture one ^^ being almost so close they touch each other, is what I'm talking about
chuck some Dia Compe Versa's on which I was running back in the day and they really do over lap
Muzzy
you really should try em out, they were cool well before the City Courier look came into fashion
