I am struggling to find a carbon wide flat bar that also has strengthened ends so it can take bar ends. The Use ones look great but can't find a uk supplier.
I am after 710 - 730mm, any suggestions?
Thanks
Are you sure you want bar ends on something that wide?
I don't know yet as i haven't tried it but I want the option. I ran bar ends on my previous flat bars but they were only 600mm. This is for a 29er that I have just got so kind of feeling my way around it all right now.
Maybe I am way off the mark and bar ends not required which would explain why so few wide flat bars have reinforced ends.

I've just bought Thomson carbon flat bars from them but don't think they have strengthening inserts
I use Mt Zoom ones. Bar end friendly if that's your thing.
Super wide and super light.

I run 'ends on 760 flat (alu) bars. But I'm pretty tall/long arms, and like the leverage for getting my winch on.
I have ordered the USE bars from Winstanleys. They are a special order though and twice before Winstanleys havent delivered on that sort of thing so will go for the mt zoom ones if this falls through.
Thanks
