They came on the Trek Pilot I purchased used. My DH later took them off as I was not using them at all, being used to road riding and using hood brakes. And, as others have stated, they took up valuable bar real estate. Since my bars are narrower (38 cm), I need all the top bar I can get.
I think if I had started out with them, I might have liked them, but because I was so used to braking from the hoods and drops, I just never ever remembered they were there!
