How do i install these bars in my MTB? do i need to take out the existing ones that came with the bike?

These clip on to the handlebars around the end where the grips are. You need to slide the grips over to get room on the bar. Not sure what you have now to give better answer.

Take either a hammer or a rubber mallet and tap the end of your grips. The handlebar will cut the ends off your existing grips. Then slide your existing grips inward about 1 inch. Soapy water can be used to aid in getting the grips to slide over. These origin8 bar ends slide onto the bare bar and you clamp them down with an allen key. Then insert the handle bar end caps if provided. I hope this helps you out. Ps they are fantastic

Not sure I understand the 2nd part of your question, but here's what I did. There was a plug in the end of the regular grips that had to be removed so I could slide the regular grips down the bars to accommodate the bar-end grips. You will need to loosen the controls and slide them in far enough for the grips and bar-ends. That leaves an inch or so of plain handle bar over which you slide the bar-end grips and tighten them up.

Thanks Pendarvii. I would have missed this if it wasn't for your post. They cylindrical parts are used in Step 9, even though the assembly guide makes no reference to it. They go inside the left & right pedal arm assemblies, where they connect to the lower left and right handlebar assemblies. As Pendarvii said, the carriage bolts will go through them.

I wouldn't recommend taking them off after you've tightened them onto your handle bars. You risk stripping the hex screws that hold them on and the diameter of the bar ends would be smaller than originally once you remove them. I would not recommend any type of bar ends on a rental bike, not to mention the ends of the handlebar grips have to be cut/removed to put these on a bike's handlebars.

That's the reason I bought them. You would need to use the bolts from the original set up. You should make sure that the wheels will fit, the size-range information would be somewhere either on the original wheels or on the inline frame.

I don't know the mfg. should know. If not go to Cabelas, Dicks or other sport shop and try one. you should not have to put the bars in. It should be obvious if it fits.

Each manufacturer is different, I have an aprilia that needs to change the bar ends so I got a set of rizoma or I can opt out don't use the bar ends at all (just use the flat one come with the mirrors), not sure about yours. Most of the motorcycles accessories needs some kind of modification.

They'll fit the bar but not sure about the space to mount them. Those pit bikes sometimes have cramped bars.

Carlie, you know, I'm not sure. I had to return mine as they didn't fit what I found out where Thule bars on my Soul. If I were you, I'd order them. Go to a Roof Rack place and see what bars they fit on, then return them if they don't. I know it's a hassle--but a good process of elimination. And besides, if you're protecting (like I was ) well over 6-digits in bicycles, I didn't want to chance them not fitting well.

Yes it comes with them. I did not buy anything more to get this installed on my mountain bike

Yes they should fit. I had mine mounted on a Yamaha FZ8. I had to remove the bar end, but if you have extra bar space you should be just fine. They worked well and surprisingly gave good sight picture

What I did was install a wooden dowel inside the handlebars and then drilled out a hole, and installed the mirrors that way. I know that does not answer the question, but I never tried to find out.

Im not sure.... (the grips are defiantly not 3" wide tho;) These grips fit standard size mtb bars. I have them installed on my Truvativ Hussefelt bar. they are slightly thicker than ur average grips. and they are slightly longer due to lock rings (about 1/4" longer than standard grips)

Yes, you definitely have to remove the handlebars and I would recommend removing the pedals also. It is very easy to remove the pedals and would do the same for just about any case.

It's very easy if you just bought them the come with instructions. If you already have them and no instructions the bar has two lift tabs on each bar lift them up put one end of the bar into any one side of the rail and due the same for the other side line up with the little arrows on top of the rails push down the tabs and your ready to so the second one the same way.

You can not. It replaces them with the bracket for the bull bar. That's the only negative thing about it. Wouldn't want to try and pull on the bull bar either because the metal isn't all that thick. I've had mine for almost two years now though, and it has done everything I've wanted it to.

Bars fit great on my wife's 03 sportster, plenty of room for the forward controls. The offset mount goes at the bottom, you will see how it goes when you put it down there, not real obvious at first, but it fits. Sorry can't be much more help, I had no directions either

My giant has exposed cables with housings at each end. The shifters came with approximately 2 feet of housing for each cable. I had no problem installing the shifters on my bike. But I screwed up because I changed my brakes afterwards and had to use the rear cable on the front and buy a new cable for the rear(the new brakes needed slightly longer cables) l had already cut the cables to fit the original brakes(doh!!!) Unless you need housings from shifter to derailer(fully inclosed)you will have more than enough to install these. I think you'll be pleased with these if you buy them. Any other questions feel free to ask. I love them on my Giant Rincon
