Default HCC apes or wild one chubbys apehangers

Hill country customs has there own exclusive ape hangers. They are the same dimesions as the chubbys except for less pullback. I believe pullback is 8" instead of 12.5" Anybody have any expierience with the hcc bars?

I would also be interested in the answer to this question. Im looking at both also, HCC has a killer package deal on ebay for apes.

Kind of funny, I also have a 2006 Road King Custom!

I can tell you from my own experience that you will absolutely love teh wild one's if you go that route. they are high quality and have a great riding position. Good luck with your project!

Why 2 weeks. I ordered 18s on Wednesday and I got an email today saying they have been shipped. No tracking # thoughi ordered the hcc version. He told me that 18s over 16s with less pullback is better on road kings cause you sit higher up. I'm 6"2 an that's what he recomended. I'm scared they will be a bit Atoo tall but we will see.

I just ordered my bars from HCC on Monday. I also couldn't decide between the HCC and the Wild1 WO502. I chose the Wild1. They are building me a complete setup (bars, controls, switches, prewired,) with the Wild1 12.5" for $100 more than the HCC setup.

I haven't received them yet hopefully first of the week!
