Depends on what you're looking for. I had drag bars, but switched to mini-apes (12" total rise) for a more comfortable riding position. My apes are also narrower than the Wild 1 Chubby drag bars I had, so the bike feels much more nimble.

Yup, apples and oranges man. Thats like picking between renting a monster truck at a track for the day, or getting to shoot a 50 cal from a moving apache helicopter....
Hate picking between those two...

If you get ape hangers, don't forget to get cables/hoses, if you need them.
