Congrats on your +7! These are the bar ends I installed and yes, I was able add them to the existing grips.My name is Steve, from Cleveland Oh, I am 65 years old and I recently purchased the Trek Allant +7. I am new to this EBR Forum, but have been following the posts and have gotten some good info from it. Thanks to all that have contributed. So far, I am happy with my purchase, the bike is solid and has a good ride, especially enjoy the front suspension fork. The only modification I have performed is adding the SR Suntour seat post which was a game changer for me. The bike came with the Racktime rear rack , but I did not like Racktime bag choices, so I purchased the Racktime adapter plate and was able to modify Topeak's MTX bag by adding the adapter plate. I do have a question for Dallant, I like the bar ends that you installed and was wondering if you could tell me the brand name and or the model number of the ones you chose, they look exactly like what I would want, as I would like the option of sitting more vertical. I dont see in any of your posts information pertaining to them. where you able to just add them to the existing grips? Thank you for any information. I also saw the Ritchy adjustable stem that was mentioned in the posts, which might also be an option to raise the height of the handle bars. Any other suggestions would be welcome.
I did also cover it all with grip tape, which really added good cushion and grip.
You can also see from the photo that I moved the headlight up to the handlebar area simply by using the existing mount with the existing handlebar screw and it’s held up perfectly.
