Bike Bar End Installation

Here is how to install some bike bar end grips on the handlebars of a mountain bike. These bike bar end grips give you a higher grip on the handle bar for better comfort when climbing or cruising. These bike bar and groups are easy to install. All you need to do is move your handlebar controls over about a quarter inch and bought them onto the ends. The ones in the video are Bontrager bike bar ends.
Here is where you can get a good deal on bar ends:

I have my bar ends at about eighty five degrees and that's pure riding comfort . It's almost feels like riding a dutch bike because my back is almost vertical. I switch my hand grip to lower grip in trafic . This is so I can brake quicker .

Maybe try putting them on the right way round and correct angle.

Kids, don’t try this at home…

For starters, the bar ends are the wrong way around.

Too funny, , " ready to go ride like an old person"

I'd worry that mounting them front backwards (like you really do here) might in the long run put their clamps at risk. Might be wrong (objections welcome) but they seem designed to be pushed the other way round. It still depends if you are putting your weight forwards on them or hanging from and pulling back, then yes :) . Suppose they won't break, ok but just for peace of mind...

Rather than sliding the grip towards the centre of the handlebars, thereby loosening the grip, wouldn't it be better to make a cut all the way around to remove about an inch of the grip towards the outer end, and then fitting the bar end?

The upright bar end position is the most comfortable one, but it looks weird on your bike appearance.

how do you wrap your bar ends with tape?

I have a question. Are you able to flip these towards the rider making them look like an upright beach cruiser handlebar? My ebike has me pitched forward and it hurts my back and shoulders. Does anyone have any suggestions to make an ebike handlebar more comfortable for the lady arm/torso/back length.
