What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I’ve run these Par Ends for years, and they’ve outlasted multiple sets of grips. They’re light, won’t shatter like cheap plastic caps, and they protect both me and my bars when things get sketchy. Super easy to install and basically bombproof."We’ve all cracked cheap plastic bar ends before—Odyssey Par Ends were designed to put an end to that frustration. Built with a special plastic composite that won’t shatter, they’re lightweight, durable, and offer reliable protection for both you and your handlebars. What we like most is Odyssey’s hybrid design: a combination of over-the-bar and inside-the-bar fit that keeps the ends secure and prevents the dreaded blowout that can happen with ordinary press-fit caps. These are the same Par Ends that come stock on Odyssey grips, trusted by riders everywhere for their blend of strength, simplicity, and staying power.
