This is a KISS (keep it simple sam) solution to the hand ache and wrist rattling I experienced with the stock handlebar set up. Lead fishing weights. Others have used BB's and expensive store bought items. All good fixes. Fishing weights #4 or AAA reusable split shot work perfect . Costs about $12.00 or so for the split shot. Their big enough so they don't get stuck anywhere. The difference for my hands and shattered arthritic wrist were "Fantastic"
Just my $.02

Take off the end caps and fill the handlebars with the weights, I've got the ESI risers, so I didn't have to worry about the BB's getting into things, works great.
