I'm with ya...looking for something not too wide or narrow. Wild 1's rule themselves out for me because they're so much wider than the trees.

I've had wild1's great bars. I now have Carlini fly'in apes and really like them. Both are well made bars. You can get seconds from carlini if you are thinking powder coating.
