Just fixing up my brother's partner's awe inspiring Raleigh Ogre MAX 15, and the last thing it needs, is a bar end cap. Not just any bar end cap, no, because this bike is being specced mostly for leaning against the wall in their flat. Currently it has an aftermarket bit of kitchen roll taped around the end of the bar, but I feel I should be able to beat that...
I used to have some excellent big squishy rubber bar ends, probably about an inch in diameter and almost 10mm thick, but they were stolen (no seriously, a thief broke into my garage, discovered all the bikes were locked up, and stole my big box of spare parts instead) and now I can't find any more.
So- big squishy bar ends, UK seller ideally, what you got STW?
I believe the site gets a commission if he buys through lovehoney
Or, in a similar vein 😀 , swap his grips for some cheap BMX push ons with an enclosed end
Maybe not in black just in case it leaves marks on the wall
Search for ODI bar end, loads came up. If you have trouble with colour or stock my LBS has a selection so I could post them on if necessary.
Best thing about these ones is sourcing, prepping and drunk tinkering:
I really like that cork idea. Fits the brief perfectly
The single clamped lock-ons on my Whyte 629 has pleasingly sqwodgy enclosed ends.
Raleigh Max Ogre 15, I would suggest though that
the last thing it needs, is
a bar end cap.
lobbing in a metal skip.
I don't think I'm strong enough to throw it in a skip tbh. It's the ladies' version too so it has properly insane canti cable routing with a wee wheel in it. But, I have to say it's not in bad nick and it cost her a tenner, probably worth it.
I feel like buying dildos for your brother's other half is generally considered a faux pas in western society but the corks are a nice idea. Are the ODI ones soft? It says in the description that they're resin, I assumed from that they'd be fairly rigid but they're perfect otherwise
Cheers folks
