Default Need SG handlebar help

Yes, I did search and did quite a bit of reading, but I don't have an answer to my question. Probably because I don't think I fully understand the concept of pullback.

What I want are some handlebars that are about 2" taller, and have a less severe angle to the grips. A little wider wouldn't hurt. Any suggestions?

Krome werks +2 sweepers are what you are looking for!! They kick the ends of the bars out kinda like a dirt bike bar. you can see them in my pic!

All the above seem popular here. After a lot of research I went with horizon bars (black) from www.helibars.com Style isn't for everyone, but I like em - and more importantly, they're adjustable at multiple pivot points. I was able to set em up to fit me real well.

Thanks for the input, guys. I was having trouble with the Klock Werks website, so I ordered the 575s. I need to do something quick, these factory bars are not working at all.
