>>973712How wide are your bars? Bar ends used to be really popular back in the day but bars were also much narrower back then.
I recently bought some for my flat bar road bike and even though that has quite a narrow bar (haven't measured it but probably around 600mm) they were just too far apart to be comfortable. I ended up moving them so they're in between my grips and brake levers and it's about perfect.
Pic related, not mine but you get the idea.
