Today I went for a 95 mile group rode and my hands didn't go numb!!!! Super excited!

i have been using those steel(not aluminum) black lucky bike bar ends on all my bikes for many years. they settle bars nicely and increase comfort a great deal. beware speed creep as the heavy bar ends will throw off your "vibration speedometer".
