Default Ergo up bar - no?

I've been considering an Ergo Up bar, since the OEM bar on my RK is too narrow and too low. But I see quite a few of them for sale in the classifieds. Are that many people that bought them unhappy with them?

I can't comment on the EU bars, but have you adjusted your current bars, to see if they get closer to what you would like? The grips move quite a lot as the bars are moved back and forth.

I had the ergo up bars. Two sets actually. Now I'm runnin BR Custom bars. They're higher. Which requires all the usual headaches and $$$.

Hill CountryCustoms will sell a complete ready to bolt on kit.

Just another option.

Ergo Up are great. But I like my BRs better.

The ergo up bars have an odd wrist angle that puts some people off. Mine felt more like drag bars with a straight wrist angle. I liked them and others hated them. This may be why you see all the classified ads.

Default ergo backs

had ergo back bars on my SG. Hated them at first, readjusted them and got to where I got used to them. wrist angle is very straight. I found that my hand position was a lot closer to the controls. All in all, I doubt I'd buy them again if I had another bat wing.
