The bars feel really good actually. I thought that they might bring me too far forward but I actually like the position. Feels like a more upright riding position with the option to tuck forward if you want. Also seems to make the bike seem lower than it actually is.

I like the bars as well. Just one question: How is this with the brake fluid reservoir? It's tilted forward. Does it not leak through the vent holes? And the sight glass won't show the correct level... Huh

Brake fluid reservoir seems to be OK. What vent holes are you referring to? I was of the understanding that the brake system was a closed system?


Well, I have had no leaking yet. It seems to me that the master cylinder location and angle is about the same on my bars as on a RYCA.

As for the sight glass; yes, it is hard to tell what the level is but all I have to do is loosen the two allen screws on the clamp housing and rotate it about 20 degrees up to get a view of the glass then I know. Mostly I just do periodic brake fluid checks, especially after discovering less than a tablespoon of fluid in there the last time.
