Bottom Line:
These walk the walk, and talk the talk. Rough & Tough Ti absorbs harsh vibrations. Feels light in your hands. Octagon shape works well for gripping & ripping. I ordered these bar ends for my Lucky Strike. I could have ordered anything I wanted, but these are the real deal as far as I am concerned. Bang for the buck in my book = 5 Chilis

Strengths:
unbelievable craftsmanship, light, comfot, ergonomics unmatched by anyother bar end made, PERIOD. Just ordered 2 more pairs.
Weaknesses:
nada
Similar Products Used:

Bottom Line:
If they where sold by Moots, Litespeed, Merlin they would fetch over $120.00, as far as I know they are new for Airborne but when word gets out these will be the only one to get. By the way, I'm not a mooch buying some ti because its cheap, hell, ny ego will probably cause me to buy a lightspeed over a Airborne Lucky Strike frame, but there is not a sound reason to do this, it's just that these barends are the best for any amount of cash.
