Hey bikebldr, is that one inch tubing? if so, do you have one inch hand control devices? I always use the stock hand control devices, I will even cut off the ends of the one inch handle bars and weld in 7/8 tubing, just to keep the stock stuff, of course I do not like the stock stuff, I will gut them as much as possible to widdle them down as much as possible, but, that is just me, I just wonder what you would do with one inch controls, I feel as if they are expensive, of course, that is just me, though, please do not get offended

you can always have steffan at www.zombieperformance.com make you some. he has some pretty bad ass stuff. or you can just order a custom setup. just sent him my trees to do some custom riserless bars. and he's in oregon so shipping won't be expensive for you.

Yes, I cheaped out and got raw steel.

Should've got stainless, but my fender struts aren't stainless either so I figured I'd keep the materials the same.

4 weeks and $150 for the bars; mine have 5" of rise with a forward bend.
