The ones above the head give a harsh vibe to the grips, down by the feet will put the feet asleep.

I haven't tried it yet, but wonder if it would work. I think I'll attempt it on my days off and see what happens.

I think that all they are just a spring with a weight suspended within the bar could be a cool diy project ... would have to be a pretty loose spring I imagine with a guide rod and just a chunk of lead. That sort of vibration technology was first used on ships and earthquake prone skyscapers. Great idea kudos to Vibranator for trying it out on bikes.
Let us know how the product works out for you.

Someone took a cigar tube, filled it with b-b's or buckshot or something, put some rubber o-rings around it and slid it into the bar.
