They look cool, but my gut tells me they'd be less comfy.

Show bike stuff, not ride a bike stuff.

Nice look though.

Price is right and worth trying. I know some guys have used pistol grip and had no issues. I like the look and may have to try. Hell, for 30 bucks, even if they are garbage I am not out much.

Looks like they would be very comfortable to me. And they do look cool.

They're chrome which is a +1.......they're inexpensive, another +1...

How uncomfortable could they be?

Beats the hell outta HD's prices for a comparable item.

I say, go for it.

i have them on my bike and i love them.

got mine out of the custom chrome catalog. the chrome is cheap (which is why they're 30 bucks) but they're actually really comfy.

the ridges don't come up as high and aren't as obtrusive as you'd think.
