Have you seen the new Koga Denham handlebar? It is pretty exactly what you were trying to do with your setup. btw. I used a 70cm wide 9° MTB flatbar and put the bar ends (the ones you have in your video) on the inner side between shifters and brakes and some Specialized S-Works Roubaix tape around it. It works perfectly! Excellent for MTB trails and including a nice aero position.
@@toastyrides hey guys what you both are saying is really inspiring, currently on my fattie I have a Kyote with ergo barend grips (that has a good backsweep so at least hands don't get numb) but as I do gravel and I love drops, and really want to try them on a fattie, I can't wait for the Corner to actually be released...! Toasty it's the first video of yours I'm finding, sorry if I missed some previous story (will catch up and I like your diy here too), but may I ask you where you got them from, pleeeeeeez? 😁 from Italy gotta say many i hear are skeptical about the weight and i would indeed prefer alloy (and in the Philipines a serious rider already already did some replica/copy very popular therel but well i'd rather go surly of big tested brands really) but just can't wait and noone knows any actual release dates (roughly of course)... cheers :) !
@@dorianblue4229 hey! Thank you! 🤙 the Kyote bar is very comfortable, I just put mine onto my newest build (the Jamis Dragon) as they had been sitting for a while not used. yeah I would hope they’ll do a version 2 and make some adjustments and offer an alloy version, too. I got mine from BlueLug, Japan, but they are now sold out. They released in some countries last month I think, but in small numbers and most places sold out quickly (my country sold out before the release date! 😂). Yeah definitely with Surly I have no worries about strength 👌 especially being steel! Haha. I hope you like the other videos, if you do watch them sometime! Greetings from New Zealand!
@@toastyrides hey mate, i'm back after this couple of days because i'm actually left with one more question... in the Philippines they're full of surly corner replicas, but what is interesting is that some of these copies (that's how they openly call them) are said to be alloy - and lighter. Not that they're so much close to you either, but have you heard of those? (You easily find clips around yt as well). Since you have "the real McCoy" i may guess you'd favour yours, but it's still worth asking :) take your time. Thanks always!! :)
I am with you on this. I'm a little concerned about the reliability of this mod. I wish Surly would just leave them long and then let the customer or shop cut to length.
I just modded my knockoff aluminum corner bars exactly like you did. I used an old set of Bontrager race lite magnesium bar ends and cut them so a little bit of the curve remained. I used the We The People Supreme bar end plugs, and filed the bar ends to fit just like you did. It worked awesome and was pretty easy to do. Thank you for the great tip!
Make a foam form for the desired extension shape. Cover with CF & epoxy. Vacate form, & extend CF/Epoxy into Surly's horn ends, which should bond well. Yep, then you'd have your custom-fit extension done-right :-)
Cheers! Thanks heaps, it’s heaps of fun this 😁 super comfy, fast and wheelie-able haha. Look forward to some trips with it after lockdown, just need a tent and sleeping setup 👌
I have a set of old school drops that I cut down to make Bullhorns. If I can get bar ends clamped at the bend the Geo would not be dissimilar to your set up but a truck load narrower. 🤔 Hmmmm. Nice hack. 👍 I'm off to bodge😃
You could I think! If you file the inside of the clamp out it should be fine, if there’s enough material 👌 good idea! Would love to see the end result 👍 thanks heaps!
I gave it a go with some Uno Advanced Project bar ends. I managed to shove one on but the clamping bolt is too short to tighten it up, I believe that if you were going off road the shorter reach with more leverage would be great but not having the brakes to hand is , yeah well. I enjoyed messing around, thanks for the inspiration 👍.
One might actually then just go with bullhorn bars. You would have to turn the levers around so the brake lines run backwards along the bar. And the thumbshifters would have to be swapped left-right.
I need to know if theres a way to extend it like you did. If theres a proper attachment because I personally trying to find a way to extend that part because i find it a good hand position.
Do you have any tips to tidy up the cable with this setup? my cable are really messy.. I switch from flat bar to corner bar and back again to flat bar because of the messy cable routing.. thanks for the video..
Could you provide a link to the "scooter" handlebar extensions you were referring to? Not sure if I want to go through the work of make-shifting the bar ends like you did lol. Thanks!
@@toastyrides hi, sorry for the multple comments and questions :) but you can be flattered, your video really intriguing :) ok i'll just stay chill now, greets from Italy (which we always see as a New Zealand just upside down and split, it's freaky how similar they look :D cheers!)

Hi there, this is such a cool bike and looks so versatile. I was wondering if you could do a video on this bike alone? A review, why you picked this bike, how you set it up and why?? Cheers! Great channel!
@@ronwhite8503 no worries, happy to help! That’s cool to hear, I’m really enjoying putting the content out there 😁🤙 interesting and comfy bikes 😎 haha. Have fun and happy riding!
Thanks for the video, I have never used drop bars but was looking for possible bar options for extra hand positions/comfort on my Kona Dew and might give this Surly bar a shot.
Thanks for checking it out! Sounds like a good plan, this isn’t too different like dropbars would be. There are also bars like the VeloOrange crazy bar, or Jones Loop bar that you might be interested in 🤙 the Koga Denham bar looks comfy, too!
I put the surly corner bars on my kona dew fs - but I also switched the front forks to rigid carbon ones. I used an adjustable stem to raise the bars up and inwards for a shorter reach and more upright ride. I love them. I also switched to a hollowtech bb and went microShift 1x10 with a 40 to 11-48 drive.
Thank you! Here’s the link, cheap and comfy. Slightly softer than an ODI longneck (the standard, haven’t tried the new “soft” ones) www.wiggle.co.nz/seal-bmx-switch-grips-limited-edition
If you use a shim, the bar is 22.2 so would need a 1.6mm shim to fit the 23.8 road shifter. I don’t know if the road shifter would suit the curve of the bar, I think it would be too aggressive. It’s meant to convert mtb’s to “dropbar” with mtb components
Really appreciate what you did here. About the extension: Why not use a suitable bolt with the extender nuts from an old quill stem instead of that pricey extender lock? Too big for the space? Too much weight? As soon as I saw the lock nut I thought of extender nuts on a quill. Thanks.
Thanks! Yeah one of those could work, if you modified it a bit as it’s too large. But then you have to also make a piece for it to spread/wedge up against that fits the inside diameter of the handlebar. It would’ve been possible, and complicated, but the barend I used was perfect for the job👌
Zniino makes the chinese version of those cornerbars. way more affordable, and actually build to modern standards, do'nt know why surley would charge 140$ for theirs. you can also build your own with a cruiser handlebar and so mtb extensions.
I would love to see some more detail on how you made the extensions. I understand the concepts but I can figure out how you attached the clamp to the extension bar. You mentioned JB weld but I’m unsure of how you used it. Any help would be much appreciated!
Why nobody puts brakes and shifters on the top bar (flat) ... and use corners/drop just for handling .... like your extension - it would be even better if they would be slightly bent up like the one you cut :)
The outer ends...do your hand ever go there? Seems you could trim 5cm each side. I run a simple inverted trekking bar and it's damn near perfect. I will give it a go to ovalive the near-the-stem position that I seem to use most for aero reasons but numb up my hands. I did a little test with some strips of foam stacked up to the fore and aft faces of a section of bar. On top of that, a rubber grip cut open like you have in this video, and then a cork bar wrap of sorts.
Hey! It’s a 35 degree stem from memory and I think it’s the 75/80mm version (it has no measurements on it). But because of the angle it only equals about 65mm of reach.
Hi Sir I am using the same kind of corner bar as you do. I'm just wondering if what is the size of stem that you used? The high rise stem? Thank you sir
My criticism of the Surly bar is that it slips in the handlebar clamp because it's only 25.4mm and it's steel. The Chinese knock off doesn't do that because it's 31.8mm and aluminum.
That sounds like there’s a tolerance issue with your stem, I haven’t had that problem at all. But fair enough I guess, would be annoying if it happened to me too.
@@toastyrides It did happen with the steel bar but it's never happened with the alu bar, same stem. Once it happened I felt uneasy about using it. I don't worry at all with the alu bar. Cheers!
Hello! I have a huge question! I want to change from a flat bar to a drop bar but that means change shifter, brakes etc... Does this corner bars can be adapted to the original brakes and shifter for my flat bar? Nice build on your bikes man!!!
@@guol1806 i dont use it anymore but its not the bar's fault. Its just too much work on my current bike to fit it (longer brake hoses). I went back to my Klunkers for my MTB
I think they did a great job but they could’ve made it near perfect. They can definitely make it better in version 2 👌 I think they tried to keep it simple, for flatbar riders but they compromised haha
Yup Surly tried. At least they’re the 1st company to address the desires of flatbar riders who longed to convert to drops but were intimidated by the cost. Still could’ve tested the form factor first before launching but they were probably under a deadline to release it.
@@dorianblue4229 hmm it’s tough to say 🤔 definitely the “hood” or “nub” extension like I did. I think the angle and drop are a good medium for people. And I like how it doesn’t change reach by much, especially compared to regular drops! One with a bump in the drop, like Ritchey Venturemax, would be lovely 😂 I love that bump!!
@@toastyrides ok. Great to have one more view on the reach cos indeed i wished to spare more swapping/adjusting of the stem too hehe. And yeah i have an aussie Walmer 60-75 on the graveller and a funn g-wide 50 on the basic tourer, but i know all my local friends are crazy for that drop bump! They just love it, even "waving" looks :))) ok it all makes sense, thanks :)

I had this same idea, managed to find the handlebar extensors on Amazon, cool to see
Good idea with extensions I definitely like you’re idea of welding a longer piece on with an outward sweep though
Thanks! Yeah it would be cool to experiment with a couple styles 👌
Thinking of welding this as mentioned, had any ideas on sweep etc? I don’t know where to begin (friend will do the welding)
Make a foam form for the desired extension shape. Cover with CF & epoxy. Vacate form, & extend CF/Epoxy into Surly's horn ends, which should bond well. Yep, then you'd have your custom-fit extension done-right :-)

Controltech makes a 22.2mm bar end extensions 20mm each side that would increase the length for extra room for your hands at hoods.
Yeah there weren’t any around at the time, and 20mm isn’t much but MGP do some longer ones (that also weren’t in stock haha)
One might actually then just go with bullhorn bars. You would have to turn the levers around so the brake lines run backwards along the bar. And the thumbshifters would have to be swapped left-right.
Very clever - well done 👏

There are copy bars in the Philippines and elsewhere, But none of them made improvements to address the cons of the corner bar.
Try using a dish sponge and electrical tape for the hood padding!
Brilliant. Why didnt Surly just make them this way!
I was thiking at this point the mod gives you the on the hood drop bar position but why not just use drop bars
Sand down some 20mm dowel and insert inside of modifying bar ends.

It's a good mod for that position, but wondering how string. I guess their design is just to mount the brakes , not have a top position there..
