Default better wrist angle on apes?
Currently I am running wo575b bagger bars on my 09 FLHT but I want more height. Looking at either going with Yaffe Monkey Bars or Wild 1's 577b bars. Wondering if anyone has experience with both, and if so, which has the better wrist angle. I really like the angle of my 575's, and had Khrome Werks Sweepers before this but they were too straight and not that comfortable for me.

Thanks for the help...

Wild1's are perfect for me. Perfect wrist angle. Zero complaints!
