Default Just installed some West Coast T-bars

I was VERY hesitant as to whether the west coast 10" t-bars would work for me since there is very little pullback, but I have to say the bars are very comfortable and are forward just enough to take the pressure off my tail bone. I'm 5' 11, if that's helpful to anyone.

The craftsmanship and finishing on the bars is top notch. Easily the nicest handlebars of all the ones I've installed. I waited a few days ( I know I know.. least it wasn't weeks) but it was well worth the wait. Seeing them now I would have gladly waited 4 weeks.

I still have a few more things to wrap up with the connectors but once I'm finished up I'll get some pics going.

In the mean time, post some pics of your t-bars for me to check out.

Looks great! I got z bars on mine, and I need risers to bring my arms up (my previous bars were 16'' ape hangers, so old habits die hard lol) I guess I should've just ordered t-bars like yours. Where'd you get them?

I took off my stock (gloss black powder coated) fat bob bars and risers that had a 2 1/2" riser with them that I was using. I put them up for sale.
