    Hi

    Just bought an ec90 carbon bar and trying to work pit if I can use lock-ons with it.

    Anyone have any experience?

    Cheers

    I've got 2 pairs of CNT Easton bars and 2 pairs of older style Easton carbon bars all with lock ons. I tend just to nip the inner clamp and tighten the outer a little more.

    Hmm… I've got some ergon grips with mini barends, they tighten only on the outside. Reckon they'd be ok
    To use?

    Did it not come with the little sheet of instructions? You can use any lock-ons or bar ends that have the bolts running at a tangent to the radius of the tube.

    you’ll be fine.

    although, if you’re not it’s your fault – ok?

    as long as you don’t do the odi’s up with an impact driver they’ll be ok.

    Don’t know why but the fact that aikido just got a name check amuses me hora. Anyway, I’m running two sets and they’re fine. Just do them up with the wrong end of the hex key if you’re a brute.

    I’d also be a bit careful of swinging on the allen key when doing up the stem clamp if you have a habit of doing things up ‘tight’

    I’ll just keep smoothly turning the allen keys until the bars no longer turn 🙂

    Wanted to go with a low-rise bar in 25.4 – couldnt find any alu ones in 680 but these cnt’s popped up…….. 🙂

    On my wrists- Im serious about stronger than a Aikido champ!
