When installed do they render the horizontal part of the handlebar useless or is there still room for me to put my hands on it?

You can hold on to the pads. It also gives you a little more reach when you do, but for the most part you want to have your elbows in them.

Depends on the width of your bars and how far apart you set them. I have mine on standard hybrid/mountain bars, so they're still perfectly usable. If you were to put them on a narrow set of road bars, you'd probably have more of an issue.

I find there is still room. I imagine if you have extra large hands it would be uncomfortable though.

They will render most of it but you will be able to squeeze your hands on the handlebar, I know I can.

Take either a hammer or a rubber mallet and tap the end of your grips. The handlebar will cut the ends off your existing grips. Then slide your existing grips inward about 1 inch. Soapy water can be used to aid in getting the grips to slide over. These origin8 bar ends slide onto the bare bar and you clamp them down with an allen key. Then insert the handle bar end caps if provided. I hope this helps you out. Ps they are fantastic

The adjustment on the handlebar height is very limited. They can move a large amount front to back but not up and down. Hope this helps.

Just measured them 5.5".... you can possibly make the handlebar shorter if the 5.5" won't work for you

So long as your new bars are not radically thick or thin there shouldnt be problem. Might be a good idea to get new cables and cable sheaths too, and make sure you know what your doing... some beginner bike modders get this part muddled and then inevitably end up at their bike shop trying to get help.

There is some play in the bracket that hooks to the handlebars and the basket. In this photo they point forward. On my bike they are rotated pointing straight down. Giving you a couple of inches of play.

If you have space on the end of your handle bar you won't need anything. If you dont have room you'll need the CRG bar end

I had no room on my handlebar. So I mounted it sideway on my forward tube with cable zipties

Mine is the same way - this is the way it is designed to fit on the KlickFix once that is installed on your bike's handlebars.

The upper (forward) handle bars can be left off. I only use them to hang my headset on when I'm not riding. I find the lower handles more comfortable while exercising.

Clamps are adjustable, will fit practically all handlebars..Install just forward of left grip.

The handlebar end will eventually cut the inside of the grip. Look for one that will fit the measurments of your bars.

That is a hard question to answer not knowing what you have on the bike already. There are two things that will make you lean on your hands too much. One is the handlebars too low and the other is reaching too far. If the length of this stem is the same as the one you currently have. It will both raise you and shorten your reach at the same time. I'm sorry without more information I can't really answer your question with a yes or no.

It appears it will work without the custom brackets. If you could post a picture from the rider's position shooting towards the handlebars and mirrors, that would help us now for sure. But otherwise, if not, you could either return them or purchase the custom brackets.

Ahhh...on the handlebars. :D I have bar ends, and I moved my grips in a inch and they fit perfectly between the grip and the bar end.

Check your bikes there seems to be two different bikes, that or similar, on Amazon.com. the one I purchased has handlebars that are closer. And did not cost as much as the other one.

Watch U-tube videos for install...I had a tough time installing but eventually got them on...it would depend on the size of your handle bars and if you can remove the caps.
