Default 2014 street bob handlebar advice

I just got a 2014 street bob. This is my first Harley and I was just hoping to get some advice on some new handlebars. It currently has the stock mini apes on it and I am looking for something that has similar pull back but not has high. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks.

Harley Streetslammer 55975-08A. Also comes in a black version. About the same pullback but 3-4" lower. Same control cables work for either set of bars. I've had both. You might try the stock mini-apes for a while. They grow on you.

Awesome, thanks I appreciate the help. Yeah the mini apes definitely take some getting used to. I'm coming from sport bikes so not quite comfortable with my arms up that high still. Thanks again.

I got rid of the apes immediately. Put on Harley 'Hollywood' bars that come on the Softail Slim. Recently added LA Chopper brass risers (shorts). Not into apes, plus you see em everywhere. Sit on a Slim at a dealership . . you might like those bars.

Is it possible to put the wide glide stock bar on a street bob?? Thinking of maybe going with that, would just need new risers.

I think the wide glide uses a thicker bar.

Well I found some handlebars I like but it says it won't fit the 2014, but it does the 2012. What's the difference?
