I cannot get the carabiner to fit through the links to attach the bar.The links are way to small. How on earth did everyone get the bar attached?

I jammed needle nose pliers into the link and twisted until I could force the carabinier through.

I had the same problem, you basically have to pry the link apart with two pairs of pliers or vise grips or a vise and then put the bar in and squeeze it back together.

The rear rack has to be removed then bolt the new bar rack on. Look and see from pic if yours has bolts in same areas.hope this helped

Hey Donna; I had trouble putting one of the bolts through one of the holes where the arm meets the foot pipe. I got stuck on that one part for about 30 minutes to an hour. It was like the holes were not synced when they were cut. It took some moving around and a few grey hairs later voila! I had my issue on the "L" footbar and arm bar. I had to maneuver the arm and leg every which way to get it to fit. Eventually it ended up going in; could not tell you what I did to force it to fit. It was like little effort did it over my weak force! I hope you ae able to get it to work. I am on the elliptical as I write this and it is an amazing pice of equipment.

Based on the picture I got back from Google (https://www.google.com/search?q=jeff+jones+h+bars&biw=1899&bih=1072&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=uPwFVauTPIeeggTW1IL4Cg&ved=0CC4QsAQ#imgdii=_&imgrc=OejP9M8yaFxQcM%253A%3BGDmCHk00WLqOqM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.gravelbike.com%252Fwp-content%252Fuploads%252F2014%252F04%252FJones-Loop-H-Bar-cockpit.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.gravelbike.com%252F%253Fp%253D3003%3B2292%3B739) it looks like it should work. You just need about 4 - 5 inches of straight handlebar out front in order for it to attach. On my dropbar handlebar the mount just attaches on either side of the stem - and then it just hangs right off the front. Hope that helps, Tim

Hi Helena, I guess theres no trick...too much of muscle power.. I had this problem, i somehow forced it into the base and it is stuck forever now i guess the two side bars went inside the middle one is out...but its locked

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.

I don't recall where I've placed the manual now, but this is basically the same thing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2ZFzP0czM0It appears you need to use the cage bars to secure it properly.

Turn the Three pointed knob clockwise to tighten it on your handlebar. Used mine again last weekend at the Sugarpine MC Rally. It was a little loose so I turned the knob and tightened it right up!

You have to disassemble the bar. The ends pop off, and you will see two screws. Remove these, and the bar comes off. Remove the old piece and place the new one on the bar. Reverse the process to reinstall the bar.

If I had this problem, here's what I'd try: Get a pair of bicycle handgrips (from Target or any sporting goods store). Cut the end off each so that they're now hollow tubes. Slice each grip lengthwise so you can slip it over the bar, with the solid part up and the slice down.

Are you serious? Who in their right mind would not unfasten the Velcro from the 'V' ring first? How else are you going to attach the carabineer to the 'V' ring?

Like the other people who answered, i have the exact same bottle cage and the bar extender and there is no way. that picture should be removed for being totally misleading. i would still get the bar extender, its a great piece of equipment, I have 4 and plan to get more, they are really handy and allow for a lot of cool mods to my bike.

Pull up on the end of the middle bar. Adjust it out to the length you need and then snap the middle bar back down in place.

There is a hex drive on top of the handlebar as you lok down at it. Tighten it and that should work

Hmm, what kind of bike and most importantly, handlebar, do you have? I have no problems at all mounting it on mine using one of the provided rubber rings. You should find images or videos about it using google.

raymond, hope this helps U. Take the cover off at the 2 nuts where the bar fits, Re-track the bar back. now thread the chain around the sprocket and the slot on the bar, make sure the chain points in the right direction, now adjust the bar forward until reaching the proper tension . let me know that this is successful for U

Unfortunately, the diameter of the part which goes inside the bar end is about 14 mm... Won't fit... You can maybe find a way to adapt it somehow.
