   Getting a tingle in my tea drinking pinky finger.
   Easton EC70 Hi-rise bars, Oury Lockons, 90mm stem. SS 29er.

   For Real Ale Wobble I threw some old stubby bar ends on (and damned the fat-biked fashionistas!) and it was OK.

   Got padded fingerless gloves, that arent the best, but have been well used.

   Is the solution:

   a) more swept flat bars (say fleegles)
   b) Ergo grips w or w/o bar ends (gopping)
   c) cane creek ergo bar ends on the end of lockon grips on flat bars
   d) something else?

   I used to have some spesh bg ones that I did like - about 3 pairs ago now. Might try and dig some out.

   What do we think of the octopornogrips? Going to be heavy as hell? Cost a fraction of the v pricey ergon ones.

   

   the lightweight Ergon ones
