We want to make mention of the single most important part of any set of handlebars which is the bar pad, these are either the square pad for taper bars or the round bar pad for the 7/8” bars. Over the years we have personally seen what can happen to a jaw, face and your teeth when bare metal comes in contact with your head so save yourself a lot of pain and medical costs and always run a bar pad! All decent handlebars are sold with a free bar pad so there are no excuses!
