Looking for a little STW assistance. I'm using, and love, a set of On One Mary bars. The only 'down side' being they are a tad too short. I've located [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Controltech-handlebar-extensions-23-8mm-/181263317909?pt=UK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR&hash=item2a3422bb95 ]these[/url] but they are too big as the ID of the Marys is 22mm.

Any suggestions?

Ta to all the responders, I'll be placing an order...

I moved from the Fleegle to the Mary as I wanted a more 'elbows' in position for better climbing.

Bars for me are a bit 'handbags / shoes' for Mrs Rossco, I'm now on bar No 7. Its the perfect No...right?!

Try the new Jones bar?

The Carnegies are another good suggestion...

Don't the deluxe bar thingies only work for steel bars?

I've used them in alloy with no trouble. Technically adding extra leverage to a bar is unwise, they are designed and tested for what they are... But bar ends, the sticky out 90s ones must add even more twisting and leverage forces.
