BMX Bar Ends

Purpose of BMX Bar Ends

The goal of freestyle BMX bar ends is to safeguard the ends of your handlebars from getting scratched or developing sharp edges that could cause injury. Properly capping the ends also minimizes harm if you fall awkwardly onto the handlebars. An extra perk of this cost-effective BMX accessory is that it provides a neat finish to your freestyle bike.

Installing BMX Bar Ends

For typical plastic bar ends, installation is merely a matter of pushing or twisting them onto the ends of the handlebars until the bar end cap contacts the handlebar metal. Other kinds of BMX bar end plugs can be crafted from steel or aluminium, often featuring a central bolt that requires an Allen key for tightening, which secures the mechanism against the inner walls of the bar tubing. These metal versions are pricier than their plastic counterparts, yet they tend to last longer owing to their durability.

Even though BMX bar ends are small, they play an essential role in your set-up. Ensure they are well-maintained and replace them once they show signs of wear. Additionally, BMX grips offer another excellent way to refresh your bike. Have a look at our selection by visiting BMX Grips.
