Default Death Squad Tbars

Hey guys, I'm deciding between Death Squad and WCTbars. I wanna go DS but I havent seen a whole lot of people with them on. I'm 5'7 so I'm kinda torn between 10 and 12 inch bars. Any input/pictures/praise for these bars would be greatly appreciated!

If your running stock risers, then 12' is good. I am 5'8" and had the 14" Wild 1 chubbies as on my profile pic

Prob should get 12s although I have never really liked t-bars I prefer mx bars, I like the wider stance and adjustability of using protapers(my own opinion) Good buddy of mine is 5"8 and 12 in tbars fit him perfect. DS and WC are small USA made privately owned shops so either choice is a great choice.

I have 12's which are actually 13's. WCT-bars all day buddy... What ever size u get, remember your buying the height of the riser. The cross bar adds 1 inch.

I love my Death Squad 12s. Made right where I live in San Diego County, and the quality is outstanding. Mine measure 13.25" at the grips which puts my hands even with my shoulders.

I'm in the process of putting West Coast MX bars on my Fat Bob. I'm only going with the 8" because I only want them to be a few inches higher than the stock drag bars with risers.

Do you have any pictures of your new bars?

I went with the Burly Brand T-Bars. 12". Worked out great. Here's a pic.
