Origin8Compe Lite Bar End

Fantastic. I love everything about these bar ends. They were easy to install, light weight, super comfortable and being size large they offer a wide variety of hand positions to stave off numbness, pain and fatigue. They were great on the maiden voyage. The upright position is much better on my back, it helps me be seen better in traffic, manuver more nimble and climb better especially when out of the saddle.I got a great deal these and the supplier was awesome. Had some trouble with them getting lost in USPS for a few days (Christmas time and well, USPS) but the seller helped me with it and they arrived the next day :) Definitely no regrets aside from waiting so long to get me a set!

Let me preface this by saying: I didn't use these on a bike. My wife and I just bought a double stroller on amazon that she was having trouble using without kicking her feet into the rear wheel axle. Since we liked everything else about the stroller, I was looking for a way to extend the handlebar for her.For anyone else interested in doing this, the stroller handles/bars were 5/8 of an inch. These are meant for regular bike handlebars which are around 7/8 of an inch. Since they don't fit like they should for my improper application, I wrapped the bars with rubber before installing these. I can't provide a link to the rubber I used, but I can tell you it was rubber roofing membrane around 1/16 of an inch (I used to be a roofer) that I cut into 1 inch strips then wrapped around the bar a few times before installing these. That gives a non-slip surface to the handles.There were initially some foam grips on the stroller handlebars, so I scooted them out of the way. Then I completely unscrewed the screws (alan wrench) attached the bar ends then I used a basic chisel (a flat head screwdriver would probably work) to pry the opening open (to avoid having to take apart the stroller and slide the bar ends over). Once I had them over the rubber, I just put the screw back into each one and tightened them down.They work pretty well... but I stripped one of the screws trying to tighten it, so that one is a little loose. Either way, it's better than dealing with the short handle bar for my wife. I'll update this post with pictures next time I'm on here. I would recommend these for a stroller application. Give it a shot. You may have a better idea than me. If you do, respond and let me know.

I like that it is strong and stable. My only reservation is that it was difficult to fit on (but it does fit well.)

Just what I wanted to give myself an alternate hand position on longer rides. Very lightweight but still feel sturdy.

So these do exactly what I ordered them for, extend the handles on my sons umbrella stroller. However, it took a hour (and lots of sweat and (I admit) tears) to get these onto the handles. I mistakenly thought they would open up to be bigger for me to slide onto the handles, I was very wrong. By the time I realised it was too painstaking to put these darn things on the stroller handles, they were too damaged to return so I stuck with it and fought with them and the stroller to get them to fit. Only to tear the foam on the original handles and have the screw misaligned on the extenders. I’m too stubborn to give up and this point and was determined to make it work. After a couple (hundred) words of profanity not fit for a lady, (luckily my son was napping), I was able to allign the screws and tighten the extenders onto the original handles. They were too loose now from when the foam had ripped... so I then invested in strong tape to hold them in place.Long story short and bruised palms and fingers later, don’t buy these as umbrella handle extenders, it’s not worth the stress.However I bet they work perfect as the intended bike handle extenders. If you do buy them for my intended purpose, good luck.

They were broken. Although Amazon gave me my money back and told me to keep them, it didn’t help me, cause I couldn’t use them broken!!!I read a review that said they could be used on a wheel chair… NOPE, they do not fit over black handle! Don’t buy them for using on wheelchair, it does NOT work!

I put some cheap handlebar grips on my bar ends and it feels great. I opted for the used, like new for under $10. Good bargain.

First of all, I don't use these for the intended purpose of adding an additional grip position, instead I use them more as a bash guard for my hands.The construction is solid, but not perfect. Someone else complained that they were not symmetrical to each other. I found mine to be close enough, that I would never notice the difference while shooting down the bobsled.The only thing I didn't like about them is that the distal end was not squared off, but being as they are aluminum, it was only twenty seconds work with a disc sander to true them up. The colored aluminum end caps were a separate purchase and NOT included with the barends. The barends come with black rubber, push-in, end caps.Photo 1. The barend on the right is stock, and the barend on the left is after I squared off the end.Photo 2. The disc sander makes quick work of the aluminum tube.Photo 3. The end after I've ground it square. I only took off enough material for the entire end to match, which is why some paint is still visible.Photo 4. Completed barend "hockey stick wrapped" with black athletic tape, and installed on one of my MTBs.

Handle bar feels much sturdier since installing. Very high quality piece.

Easy to install, work well.

Nice bars and they fit really good.Not sure if they will help wrist or hand pain but sitting up a straighter on long runs is a lot more enjoyable and worth their cost

parfait peut facilement gagné 5 kmh de plus en étant baissé pour plus de vitesse et aérodynamique ,super achat pour le prix et fait toute la différence.bravo pour la qualité du produit,

Even at the tightest point, couldn’t get them as tight on the handlebar as I wanted. Needed to insert a thin rubber spacer inside the clamps to get them properly secured. Handlebars are standard mtb size 31.4mm
