Default Apes: wild1's vs. HCC

Im ready to pick up a set of apes. I was looking at the prewired package at HCC. It would cost an extra $100 to upgrade the kit to the chubbys.

What are the pros and cons??

Is it really worth the extra cash for the chubby's?

Any help would be great.

I went with the Chubby's. Not sure if it was worth it or not. I think the Chubby's have a little more pullback and are a little wider if i remember right.

Greetings,

I ran the Wild 1 Chubby's on my Rocker C. Yes they are wider, but I found them to be more comfortable than some of the other bars I looked at. So, to me it was worth it.

The HCC brand bars have less pull back. If youre taller or have longer arms, they may fit better. fwiw - Im going with the hcc.

Only if you specially request it..... otherwise they use their own brand which have slightly different shape and dimensions.
