It's Italian but you have to get them from the US

i break so many bar ends as it is

Can you not buy them over in this country?

[Sylv]

No these are road-bike specific and very unconspicuous/aero

The photo I posted higher up looks a bit naff (good to know when you're about to be overtaken by a Ferrari ..) but if you click on the link you'll see better what it looks like

I wouldn't want to turn up to a race with one of those for instance ...

seriously. im sure theres some rule about bar end plugs for the purpose of safety. If theres a sharp edge on those or the risk of a sharp edge then they may not get past the scrutineers.

No I think the trickiest bit with those will be avoiding having them accidentally snapped off while the bike is parked at the Pine Café

These could be useful for commuting as I seem to have a permanently stiff neck nowadays.
They have an ebay site which might suit those that prefer paypal. Card cloned again this week with some g*t trying to draw cash in the Philipines.

I've been thinking of getting a/some mirror[s] to give me advance warning of Morons/chavs.

Does the Italian mirror come as a pair?

Would I have to fit new bar tape if I fitted this mirror?

Tim had a pair of these (or something similar) on his Pearson touring bike at the finishing line on Saturday ....
