Brilliant!
Pros: Attractive, Comfortable, Good Fit, Great Value, High Quality, Lightweight
Cons: black finish may wear out easily
"After purchasing a set of the tioga mini bar ends for my fiance i wanted a set for my bike! After much researching i found these and was plesently happy when they arrived. Its hard to tell the dimensions from the pictures here, but these are a small diameter then the other mini tioga bar ends, but slightly longer. As I wasn't wanting anything to long so they wouldn't get in the way and these are perfect, long enough to grab for up hill sections and the diameter of them makes them very comfy (i have small hands, so are perfect for me.). The only downside it probably the same for all these painted metal ends, which is the resting against walls will slowly chip the paint away, but thats not the end of the world!"

Power studs
Pros: Attractive, Comfortable, High Quality
"These bar ends do exactly what they say on the packaging. Fantastic product used them on my previous mountain bike. Enough bar-end for the job and short enough to not get caught on branches etc when your zipping about off road. Good design and reasonable price."

Best bike accessory!
Pros: Attractive, Comfortable, Good Fit, Great Value, High Quality, Lightweight
"I bought these as i wanted some bar ends for my bike to offer me a different riding position for longer rides.
I did not want to spend a great deal so these looked like they might be ok.
Although they are small as the XS moniker suggests..they are really comfortable to use.
I fitted them in 5 minutes with an alan key. I had to trim the rubber grips on my bike and move the brake and gear controls in by the width of the bar ends but again this was simple job.
I bought the black ones and once the rubber lugs are installed in the handlebar ends you would swear the bar ends are original components and and not additions."

Simple but effective
Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, Adjustable
"The main chassis is well made, comes with caps for the handle bar ends that are a good fit, easy to adjust, not to large once fitted, provide nice alternate position on straight bars."

Good value Bar Ends
Pros: Great Value, secure fit
Cons: uncomfortable, heavy
"I bought these bar ends for the usual reasons (for extra comfort and to enable a change of position while on longer rides) and at £10.99 are very good value. The quality looks good and they even came with plastic bar end plugs. I chose the black finish which so far has not shown any sign of wearing through. Fitting was simple and the clamp is very secure. On the down side, the diameter of the bar end itself is too small and short. I have small hands but i feel that they could do with being slightly larger and longer. Also, they are a bit on the heavy side. Overall, good product but not very comfortable for long distances."

Light, Simple, Do the job
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Comfortable, Rugged, Lightweight
"Coming from a XC MTB background, I was after a set of bar ends for my new Scott Spark. Having looked around to see what was on offer I was please to see you can still buy these, as I had a set of these on my previous Stumpjumper.
These are just small enough to not look out of place on modern MTB's, but large enough to give you a comfy hand grip on climbs"

Look small but perform well
Pros: Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, Lightweight, Good Fit
"When I first received these I almost sent them back right away as I thought they were just way too short to be of any use but in actual fact they are just right. Enough so you can have a different hand/wrist position and not too big that they look stupid!"

Sturdy bar ends
Pros: Durable, Comfortable, Good Fit
"Added these to my commuter bike and they're an excellent addition. They're dead easy to fit and comfortable to use fitting nicely in the palm of my hand (to get an idea of size, I take a size large glove, when I grip the bar end, the palm of my hand sits on the clamp that goes around the handle bar and my index finger sits around the end of the bar end - but if you've got hands like shovels these may be a bit small) excellent for getting a bit of extra leverage when slogging up a hill or just to ride in a more comfortable position. They have a knurled finish to give extra grip although I'm not sure how effective this will be in the wet."

Attractive and discreet
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, High Quality, Adjustable, Lightweight, Good Fit
Cons: Limited Color Choices
"I thought this would be longer when I ordered them but it was more my fault for not comparing on a ruler. Despite this I'm actually glad they are smaller than I thought because they look great!
Easy to install and the matt black suits my MTB well. The grip is good but then I only use it so I can change my hand grip for comfort. I haven't actually used these while standing up on a climb. They feel sturdy though."

Not What I expected
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Lightweight
Cons: Unattractive, Not Enough Features, not coated., not angled
"I ordered these bars ends after seeing some on a friends bike. His were longer, had a grippy rubber coating, and were angled slightly which were more comfortable to use. The ones i recieved are Short, Bare metal which is slippy when sweaty, and are straight instead of being angled. I guess i should have shopped around a bit more instead of just jumping in."

Do the job....
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Lightweight
Cons: Limited Color Choices, may be too skinny for some
"I was looking for a cheap pair of bar ends to try the old skool flat bar/bar end position I used to use last time I rode off road....
These are cheap, and do the job. Light (112grams for a pair), short (~82mm from front edge of bar to end of barend, 108mm total length) and skinny (only 21mm diameter), but for attacking hills and to give an alternate hand position they are fine.
Not much to go wrong!"

Cons: Limited Color Choices
"Bought these for my son's Stumpy, as he kept rising with his hands off the ends of the bars trying to get different hand positions on longer rides.
Read good reviews about these and saw them on Wiggle for less than a tenner.
Had to cut down grips to allow a good fit, but solid fixings and look good. Perfect size for my son's small hands. Tempted to get some for my MTB, but not sure whether I should with carbon bars?
Anyway, fit for purpose and good value - recommended...."

"Good solid bar ends, that will enable me to change my riding position to help climb up those hills! Fit well for my smallish hands, though would not recommend for those with big hands!"
