Default Chubby's Or Nash Gimps

Can't decide on Apes for my Springer Classic, does anyone have pics/input on the Chubby's or Nash Gimps? I think the lines on the gimps look better with the Springer front end but I'm a little concerned with the angles of the bars. Wild 1 Chubbys are great from what I hear but look wide on the Springer to me. See pics.

Your thoughts?

My vote is for the gimps. I saw a few of them in Laughlin last week and they set the bike off.

I am in the process of installing my Nash pudgy midget gimps right now. They are 16", I can take some pics of them mocked up for you. Dont have the lines or cable's in yet but they are on so you could see how they look. I will try to get some pics tonight and post them.

rowdy, are they going to work with your stock risers, etc.? What length cables did you have to go with? Once you get them on, please be sure to post a pic of them, preferreably with you sitting on the bike

I have the Nash bars on order for my deluxe but here is a pic of 16" ones on my old Dyna Lowrider. Love the bars, feel just right.

first two pics is my bones with 16 nyc chopper apes which are identical to gimps, and the last two is my current setup with chubbys. i liked the nyc bars but where to narrow for me and uncomfortable now i love the chubbys but agreed they look wide on the springer so i did the aux lights, couldent be more happy. hope this helps
