yes it will work.
Errrr....maybe.
Some end caps are glued on with epoxy as well as being rivetted slash screwed.
I've cut down a few bars in my time cause I always use a 40cm bar with my kites.
That's quite short, I can just fit my hands on the thing but that's the way I like it.
If when you drill out the rivet and you find that the end cap is glued on hard,
you will need to hacksaw thru the carbon tubing (the bar) to remove the cap.
Then it's a matter of machining out the carbon tube from within the cap.
Then measure 22.5cm from the centre hole on each side of the bar and mark for cutting.
Hacksaw the carbon and replace the end caps.
Use silicon sealant as a glue and pop a rivet.
Done.
