Default Looking for Brake Lever extenders

I am looking for a set of brake lever entenders, they go on your brake
levers so you can use them when using your bar ends, any one know where to
find?

Where on earth would you need to use your brakes while having your hands
on the bar ends??

One of the mags just had some shots of that 60 year old Northshorer who
built several of the trails up there and I was surprised as hell to see him
dropping down a huge rock face on his bar ends feathering his brake
extenders.

Brakes aside, I just don't feel as in control on the bar ends. I like to do
non-technical climbing with them and that's about it.

With the exception of the pair on my beater bike, I haven't seen those in
years.

Try Ebay. Tektro made mine. Delta had some canti levers with them built
in.
