Default KW Ergo Bars

Is anyone using the Klock Werks Ergo Up or Back bars? They look to be the same height, just one is back more, hence the name

I have the back bars on my bike. I was down at the dealer Sat to have them adjusted to where I want them. It could be 2 weeks before I get to ride with them. I did like the bend better then the stock bars. And I jsut felt more comfortable. Sorry I can't tell you more yet.

When the dealer put my back bars on they must have thought they were mini apes. It was a tough reach for me. It is hard to tell how much I will like them until I get to ride it.

Default Ergo Bars

Does anybody have some good pictures of these bars? I can't find a place that has a pair so I can feel the bend. I have a bad right wrist with fused bones and need less of an inward bend at the hands. Before buying the FLHT I rode drag bars always for the hand position.
There is no way I am giving this bike up...so find the right bars!
Any help appreciated!

Check out Khrome Werks Sweepers. Better wrist position, about 2" back and 2" up. Half the price of the Ergos.

Default What other companies should I look at?

What other companies make bars with similar hand position? I agree that $200 is alot, but for comfort I will pay the price. Factory bars hurt my arm so I need to find better bars before heading for Laconia!

Mike bike will be out of storage in the next week. I will see if I can get a friend to take some pics. The KW stuff is more expensive. But my experience with KW has been great. (customer service). I had a problem with my bars and they had new ones to me in 2 days. They also did a few other things for me that other places would have not.

If I had to get new bars again I would go with the KW again. I thought they were very comfortable. I went with the back bars.
