Why do you want to put clip-ons on your GS ? That will decide which manufacturer... if for example you're looking for riser types, there's only one manufacturer I know of, but can't think of the name off the top of my head. If you're looking at just the ability to have replaceable bars then there are a few manufacturers - Vortex and Woodcraft both work great. I've known Eric at Woodcraft for many years and he makes nice pieces. I used Woodcraft clip-ons and rearsets on my race bike. These are made to survive a crash and may not be as pretty as some others, so if you're looking at pretty, then Vortex has a nicer look.

All depends on what you're looking for.

As for size, they're sized by fork tube diameter, call the clip-on manufacturer or go to the websites and they'll tell you what size you need.

I remembered the riser clip-ons are heli-bars.
