If I did go tbars though, the slingshots would be my first pick! They lookin fu*kin dope!
Yeah I'm pretty sold on those slingshots, but I just wanna see what other options there are out there... I seen a set of forbidden riser/pro taper combo on CL for a good deal but I think it already sold....
My t-sport has 12" WCMX bars. I'm 5'11". They're fine but 14" would be fine too. I've got 12" slingshots going on my fxrp. I like the slingshots better because they're not as wide.

Got pics of the slingshots? Love seeing pics of FXRPs double win for me with slingshots ! lol
I don't know the width on my bars, they are wild 1 chubbys but they are wider then 26". I see guys with the narrow bars in traffic sometimes and I envy them. I like the look of my wider bars better but id go to the narrow ones in a heartbeat just for splitting lanes
I've been right behind you splittin lanes on Hwy 4, you get through there just fine..if anything, I've seen your bags almost touch cars! It looks like you have those pretty stuffed sometimes.
I'm 5"8, I was considering getting 14" MX bars thru WCT but I haven't really sat or ridden a bike with 14"'MX bars .. I currently have 14" apes as my set up and have them leaning slightly forward for a more aggressive feel... So I'm now trying to figure which direction to go with my next set up... Would 14" total rise be too much ? I was thinking 12" riser with 2" bar rise or just 14" slingshots from WCT
All in your own likes and dislikes. My bars are custom built 14" to the top of the handlebars from the top of the trees. Comparing them to WCTB that would be slighty taller than their 12" t-bars (they measure the riser length and don't account for coping or the top bar... hella stupid weigh to measure anything and has nothing to do with the actual end rise.) I'm 5'6" and I could easily rock out a 2" taller set of T's. Would it be tall as f*ck? yes. Would it look funny? Maybe. Could I see just fine? Yes, perfectly. Would it be comfortable. IMO even better than what I got. Overall height is kind of relative. Some poeple are long waisted and others are just long legged. My buddy is 5'8" and we sit about the same on my bike even though he's 2" taller. Take your bars off. Hold your hands where you think you want them with something in your hands like a broom stick (for field of vision) and have someone measure that. That IMO will be the best way to determine what you're going to like best. That's what I did to base my dimensions off of.
Here's a pic just for reference. Happy bar hunting.
