No problems doin long runs with the clubmans. Once you put them on and take your first corner at speed you will never look back. You may wonder how you were able to ride with the stock bars.

Brickcop, Hey which height did you get? Also can you post some pics? Did you add mirrors and do they vibrate like they do when stock??

Thanks BB

Hammeroid, Is that a aftermarket bar you
added the risers to or did you form the
whole thing? If so what brand?
thanks

A friend of mine made everything from scratch. Did a real good job.

I do not know which height I got I will have to check but the mirrors are rock solid (no vibration) and the bars really take the motor and road vibration down. They are alittle pricey but I think they were well worth it. I will get some pictures soon.

I have done a bit of looking at different bars and here is what I came up with


The bitwell bars dimension are misleading becasuse they will mounted upside down and the rise is reversed.

2.8 Rise
2.7 Sweep

Moose Competition CR-LO Aluminum PN# M-4023 Silver; M-4022 Black; M-4021 Titanium

2.7

Renthal Road Generic Ultra-Low PN# 758-01

stock (my measurements off my City-X)

From what I have read the City-X and the stock XB Bars are the same except for the cross bar. The following link has menu stock handlebar dimensions. My measurements did not match theirs.
