Guys, Looking to upgrade the my bars this winter. I like the looks of the cyclesmiths and the monkey bars but I am wondering which bar provides more pull back and straightens out the wrists. I do not like how the stock bars cause my wrists to be in a angle verus straight position. Any help would be great.

 

I cant compare but i love my 13" CS way better comfort and position

 

I have the Yaffe Monkey Bars and a buddy has the CS's on his bike. The pull back on both sets of bars is about the same and you can adjust them back to you so I really don't see any issue with either set. But, I will say this...If I had it to do over again I would have CS's on my bike. Don't get me wrong, I love my Monkey bars but the CS's are just as comfortable and quality is just as good but a helluva a lot less expensive. The monkey bars are advertised as 12.5"s and the CS,s as 13. We measured them both and the monkey bars are actually 13"s and the CS's were 12"s. Both look good on the bike and as said comfort level is equal.

 

Can't argue with this train of thought. I love my 13" Cyclesmiths too. Very comfy bars.

 

+1 on the 13" CS

 

Thanks guys, so would you say that the cyclesmiths straighten out the wrists? This is a huge concern of mine over a coupl hours of riding my wrists usually are killing me.

 

I didn't notice a difference honestly between the two with the wrist position. Looking at the pictures it looks like the CS's will straighten your wrist out more than the Monkey bars but it could be camera angle of the bikes.

 

The best way is to show you on the wrist.

 

Thanks!!!

 

I have Klock Werks Ergo back bars on now. The wrist position is a natural position. But I had to order Money Bars yesterday.
