Default cables for apehangers
Where is a good place to get cables for 17 ape hangers? I heard burley wasnt a good company that their cables are junk. Any info greatly appreciated.

I have Burly bars and Burly cable kit. Not sure why people rag on Burly. Good quality, great customer service and easy to order in a complete package they take all the guess work out of ordering cables.

For the record I'm not baggin' on the Burly cables. I just wanted the SS braided lines. I ordered mine as a kit also. You can find Barnett kits at JP Cycle or Dennis Kirk. Or ebay for that matter I think. I like Burly's stuff, but there are others that have had quality concerns

I had burleys. I put them on my 18 in apes with one inch risers.. I think I could have gone with the 16inch kit. If I had 4 inch risers they would have worked great. Nothing wrong with burley...
