Default apes

Can anyone give me the heads-up on where to get some decent quality,11/4",pre-drilled black 16" apes that dont look like they will snap as soon as I use the front brake in vengeance!
Have seen some on flea-bay(HCC cycles,I think)but they look to have kinks in the bottom bends,although that might just be the poor photo,anydody got a set of theseoff these guys?

For wild 1 apes they are tapered down to 1 inch at the center and on the ends so you don't need to get different risers or different sized grips. Good luck to you.
