If you follow the list you know I just learned to add photos. I solicited your feedback a while back and here is what I came up with. 55 CHROMO Alba's with recycled bar wrap alternating in black and red but all filthy for consistency. Avid brake levers, shimano bar ends, VO +17 90 mm stem, VO braided housing (lousy), and requisite bell. It's like a whole new bike which is actually a '10 Surly Cross Check with prolly 15k miles on it. On Thursday, February 6, 2014 5:42:55 PM UTC-6, Conway Bennett wrote: Captain Conway in Chicago here.

They are Dia-Compe Knob Grips. aka dummy levers or stoker levers. I got them from Velo Orange. Cane Creek makes a more lever shaped version.

I could see the black knobbie gizmo's would offer a nice position variation for longer rides. What's the proper term for them? For longer rides varying my hand position frequently really helps to prevent numbness, aching hands, and keeping the blood flow going in my hands and arms. I also find standing up fairly often on the pedals and stretching the back and backside helps on rides of several hours as does moving my foot position on my platform pedals every so often. In summary changing position every so often on contact points of hands, feet, rear is key for me on long rides. A great cockpit setup is so essential and this thread is most helpful as I have mostly used road bars in the past. All you folks have some very nice bikes and cockpit setups. Thanks for sharing.

Curious, for those running grips (not tape) what kind of grips do you use, where is a a good place to pick some up outside of the usual box store / mtn bike type grips?
