Custom Chopper Handlebars

custom made chopper handlebars

Unfortunately I don’t have pictures of all the handlebars I have made. But, besides the frame, the handlebars are what makes a bike unique. At Kalamazoo Choppers we do a lot of ape hangers. What I have found in making my own ape hangers is that the pullback is the key.

Most manufacturers have way too much pullback, and that’s fine if you are 5’5″. But I hate to see ape hangers pushed way forward so they feel comfortable but look stupid. I have found a way to make apes that stay in line with the front end and still feel comfy for a big guy. Oh ya, and I can also build any other kinds of bars. It’s all in our imaginations. Again, nothing in production yet, but maybe someday.
