What Is It?
The PRO Bar End Plug Black Alloy is a lightweight, durable anodised aluminium handlebar end plug designed to securely finish off bicycle handlebars while keeping bar tape or grips firmly in place. Developed by PRO Bikegear, it uses an expanding screw-in plug system that provides a secure fit inside the handlebar, making it suitable for both road and mountain bike applications.
The sleek black alloy cap adds a premium finish to the cockpit while providing protection for the handlebar ends and improving rider safety by covering exposed bar openings.
