Whats the real difference between aluminum, carbon fiber, and rubber handlebar end plugs in terms of durability, weight, and overall performance? Are the more expensive options truly worth the investment, or are they just a marketing gimmick?
Can someone explain why certain brands claim their end plugs are aerodynamically designed when theyre just going to be stuck on the end of the handlebars? Is this just a sales pitch or is there actual science behind it?
Furthermore, how do you determine the correct size of end plugs for your bike? Is it solely based on the diameter of the handlebars or are there other factors at play? Are there any specific standards or regulations that manufacturers adhere to when designing end plugs, or is it a free-for-all?
Lastly, whats the deal with the plethora of universal fit end plugs on the market? Do they actually fit universally, or are they just a one-size-fits-most solution that may or may not work for your bike?
