Advice sought please:

I want to fit bar ends to my Trek but am unable due to the bike having shock absorbing material set into the bars. I need to change the bars for ones that don't have soft inserts. I see these ones on Ebay:

The clamp position is the correct size, but I am a little confused by the term "oversize". Are they referring to the length from end to end, the large clamp diameter or the entire bar, in which case would make them of no use to me.

Oversize refers to 31.8mm at the stem. Traditionally they were 25.4mm for flat bars.

Thanks RAFN. I guessed that was the case but just wanted to double check.

I will have to see what they go for wether I put a bid in.
