Handle bar end caps?

[masterchop]

On Friday my bike got knocked over by my work fork lift and severely bent one of my newly acquired bar end weights that I had just paid £50 for (the pair).

Not happy and if I can't repair I'm not spending out more money.

Does anybody know where you could buy a plastic cap that just blanks off the end of the bar?

sorry to hear, its surprising that with all the plastic bottles we generally use there must be one that the top could be cut off, or just use some gaffa tape, im sure they must do a black version

I suppose I could do. Annoyingly I'd have to remove the grips. I just want to push something down in to them. I mean they are standard diameter bars. I know you can get them for push bikes.

without the weights on the bar ends the vibes will be worse , was yours 18mm bar end weights or the standard 22mm ends or could be 11 to 17 mm fitment

Try googling 'handlebar end plugs'

Cycle bar end plugs might work. try the search first for ideas.


Edit: yep the bar weights do dampen the vibes, plugs won't

I used a pair of these on my old Burgman 650, perfectly good quality and excellent value.

You'll just need to check they're right for your bars - EBay

If your scoot was knocked over by a works forklift truck, aren`t they responsible for any damage caused ?

you are having a laugh. most companys have a small sign saying , "parking at owners risk" so they don't have to pay diddly

They may all have a sign, but that doesn't mean they're not legally liable.

But the issue here is it's where he works so how far do you push it with them (if at all by the sounds of it).
