Alright listen up riders! You ever been cruising down the road and your hands start feeling like they're about to fall off? Not from gripping too tight, mind you, but from those pesky handlebar vibrations turnin' your handlebars into buzzy little jackhammers? Yeah, we all have. Well, ditch the fancy bar ends that look good but don't do much, because Oxford's got your back (or should we say, your hands) with their CS255 Carbon Steel Bar Weights.
These bad boys are the real deal. We're talkin' proper weight here, a quarter of a kilo each (that's 255g for all you metrically challenged folks) made from tough cast carbon steel. They're not there to win any beauty contests, but they are there to do a job, and that job is shuttin' up those handlebar tremors dead in their tracks.
Here's the science bit: the weight of the bar ends dampens the vibrations, kind of like how a big bouncer calms down a rowdy pub. Plus, Oxford's clever devils have added double-damped fixings with these fancy twin expanding TPR bungs. Don't worry about what TPR means, just know it helps squish out any leftover buzz and keeps everything balanced nicely.
And if you're thinkin' these weights look a bit chunky, well, they come in a sleek gloss black design that won't look out of place on any bike. They're easy to fit too, with sizes to fit most handlebars (from 13mm to 18mm inner diameter). So basically, whacking on these bar weights is a doddle, and once they're on, you can say goodbye to tingly hands and hello to a smoother, more comfortable ride. No more numb fingers after a long haul, just pure riding bliss!
