Justin --not that one, this one -- is bringing barends back on his 29er. I’ve never thought of bar ends as sexy but they can be functional in the right context. You may remember 87 as a hair farming ABC messenger on a company mountain bike sporting giant anodized bar ends with matching brake lever extenders rolling nose wheelies half-a-block long feathering the front brake between a car and a bus cackling his characteristic cackle with an ear-to-ear grin. When you can handle a bike like that bar ends are OK.
If you're in need of new bar ends, I know a guy who knows a guy.
