Default Monkey bars- ABS vs NON ABS

is there a difference, some companies are saying the product is not compatible because it's an abs monkey bar, what's the difference?

Since the brake line is run on the outside of the bars - I can't think of a difference - but what do I know???

TBW, yes. The bars are different than non TBW bars.
ABS, makes no difference.

I have had Monkey bars on four ABS bikes now.

ABS has no effect on which bars.

They Monkey bars for TBW are different than the Monkey bars for a throttle cable.

The Monkey bars for a Hydraulic clutch are different than the ones for a cable clutch.

I have to specify when I order my monkey bars that I have TBW and a Hydraulic clutch
