Default Fatbob Apes question/clarification

I realy hope SgtCole doesnt mind, but because I am not an expert I wanted some input from those that have more experience than myself. We have been PMing on the topic of adding apes to his Fatbob.

In Short, Sgtcole wants to put apes on his Fatbob, and diddnt account for the risers change from 1 1/4" to 1". He purchased a set of "black 16" PAUGHCO apes that are 1" in diameter"

The 14" Chubbie wild1's I have are 1 1/4" however they reduce to 1" for the risers.

a) I am not aware of any aftermarket 1 1/4" apes that do not reduce to 1". Is this correct?

b) Is there a spacer he can purchase if he still wants to use the stock risers with 1" bars?

c) how about some suggestions on risers he can try (I bought my apes and risers as a complete kit from a member so I am no help)

Thanks for the input
