Is anyone running or aware of ape hangers that are 32" max from tip to tip at the grips but still wide enough at the bottom to be the same width as the slim forks? I'm having a hard time finding any that have the base width that isn't narrow but a tip to tip width that is under 34".
No sure of you measurements, but I went with the Skinnyz. 12" at the base across and 31 from tip of one grip to the other. If you have questions reach out to them, they were very helpful with measurements when I contacted them. https://dean-speed.com/handlebars/
Generally to get that narrow you'll need to go with more of Z style ape with sharper angled bends versus traditional curves. Todd's Cycles bars are another option for this style.
I have 14" Bendalicious bars on my Dyna from Zombie Performance that I love that are nice and narrow, but they are not traditional styled either.

Carlini's Evil Ape is 33" width, just sayin.
I've got some Todd's 10" strip bars here but not sure I'm going to keep them, might have to suck it up and buy longer lines/cables/wires go a little taller....

Those evil apes look similar to the Todd's strip bars but are supposed to have a few more inches of pullback which would be great. The Carlini website has them listed as 34.5" wide for the 10", I'm going to call out there when they open.
