Question Looking for new handlebar for Street Bob

I have a '13 Street Bob and looking for some 14 or 15in black apes for it and would like some suggestions from the guys and gals on this forum. I have been looking around for about a week and a half now and like the design and shape of the Carlini Evil Apes but don't really want to shell out $350+ for a set of handlebars. What are some other brands that have that same kind of style with the sharp edge kind of look (no idea if that makes sense).

Suggestions and photos are much appreciated.

Thanks,
benson821

I was going to suggest some Demon's Cycle El Diablo bars....but looks like they only have 18" in stock. You can check them out on eBay or their website. They'll run less than $200 without controls.

Search Santee Handlebars on ebay. They have 14" and 15" for under $200 last time I looked.

I've have ordered 2 sets, 14 and 10 and they were both great. looks sharp if you get the aluminum end caps too.

I went with 1.25 inch LA Choppers New Curves 1.25 inch 12 inch tall. I checked and they only make 12, 16 but they do come in black.

Do you research before you give Demon's any money. They used to have TERRIBLE customer service and not so good parts. Not sure if that has changed or not....

Pointy bars that look good are going to cost a few bills, but you get what you pay for, IMO
