    go with 3 or four finger brakes if I was using Grip Shifters for
    the longer reach.

    These bar ends have a nice feel.
    The curved ends give just a little better clearance on narrow trails.

    I like these Climbing bars.
    I am much more efficient on tough climbs with Bar Ends.

    On longer rides the extra hand position helps keep my hands from tiring as fast.

    Bicycle Seat Post Safety and Installation Tips

    It is pretty important that you use the exact seat post size for your bike.
    If you use a 26.4  seatpost in a bike that needs a 26.6 the seat post will not stay up when you hit a bump.

    It is also a good idea to put a film of grease inside of the bicycle frame when you install your seat post.
    If you don’t, your seatpost will rust in the frame.  This can be a huge problem when you try to adjust your seat height.
    In highhumidity parts of the US this can occur in a just a year.

    Most  seat posts have the size printed near the bottom of the post, right below the minimum insertion line.

    Most seat posts  have a minimum insertion line.  You will most likely damage the frame and bend the seat post if the post is not in to the Minimum.

    Disc Brakes. They will not work properly with the older style
    Cantilever or U-Brakes. These levers are long enough to work
    with Gripshift or thumb shifters.

    This seatpost is available in:
    25.4, 25.6, 25.8, 26.0, 26.2, 26.4, 26.6, 26.8, 27.0, 27.2, 28.6, 29.2, 30.0, 30.2,30.4, 30.9, 31.6,

    Seat Post Installation and Safety Tips

    It is very important that you have the exact size of seat post that you need.
    If you use a 27.0 seatpost in a 27.2 bike you will always be having
    the seatpost slide down while you are riding.

    It is important to put a bit of grease on the inside of the bicycle frame before inserting your new seatpost.
    Otherwise your new seatpost is likely to rust into your frame and become impossible to adjust or remove.
    In high moisture areas this can happen within a year.

    Usually a seatpost will have the size inscribed near the bottom of the post.

    Most seatposts will have a minimum insertion line.  If you do not put the seatpost in
    at least that far into the frame you are likely to damage both seatpost and bike frame from
    normal riding of your bike.
