Default Santee Apes?

Anyone try the Santee Apes for a bagger? I know about the Wild1, Cyclesmith, monkey bars, etc. Only interested in comments on the Santee.

I've never tried them but they should be just fine as they have been around a long time.

I'm looking hard at their bonanza bars. However I can't find if the regular medium bonanza have the TBW notches. I know they have some for the electra glide, but that won't work well on a road glide.

I also read where they had a big recall on the bonanza bars late last year. Overall their prices are very fair.

What do you mean by o.k??

I am glad this question came up. I have been thinking of these or the Cyclesmith. These are cheaper priced, but more people seem to use the Cyclesmiths. Anyone have pics...I know that has been asked a million times, but pics are worth a thousand words.
