What Are BMX Bar Ends For?

Freestyle BMX bar ends are crafted to shield the ends of your handlebars from getting scuffed or developing sharp edges that could cause injury. Properly covering the ends also helps minimize injuries if you fall awkwardly on the handlebars. Additionally, this affordable BMX accessory provides a polished finish to your freestyle bike.

How Do You Put on a BMX Bar End?

For common plastic bar ends, installation is as easy as pushing or twisting them directly onto the ends of the handlebars. The head of the bar end should make contact with the metal of the handlebar. Other BMX bar end plugs may be made of steel or aluminum and typically feature a bolt running through the center that is tightened with an Allen key, which secures a mechanism against the inner wall of the bar tubing. Metal models are more expensive than plastic ones but generally offer greater durability and longevity.

BMX bar ends are a small yet crucial part of your setup. Ensure they are in good condition and replace them when they wear out. Additionally, BMX grips are another excellent way to rejuvenate your bike. Check out BMX Grips to view our collection.
