Default Anyone running Flanders apes?

I ask because I want to change out my 10 inch Wild one Chubs for something a bit higher... I'd go with Wild ones again, but I don't like the 10 inch center width of them... I have a wide glide front end on my 07 Bob, and the bars are over an inch wider on each side of the trees... Some people don't mind this, and that's cool... I can appreciate that... But IMHO, it disrupts the front end for some reason... I'm looking for something that'll keep more of a consistent line running up the front end and widening as they reach the controls...any apes like this that you guys know of? ....Flanders seems like they achieve this with an 8 inch center width... Anyone have them?

No, but I ordered Carlini fly'in apes 14 inch because I wanted something different. Haven't gotten them yet. They are pricey but I wanted different.

metal_mike has Flanders bars on his bike, and I think he has WG trees too.
