I'm down to the "wire" on the bar swap thing. I've thought about this for a long time but haven't committed to it yet. I like the Yaffe bars and I think that the 10" ones will do fine . My question is for those of you that have swapped bars. Is the wires a PITA to change ? Thanks for any advice it looks like a winter project this year.

If you need a small amount of change, 55864-09 (Black Heritage style) or 56902-08 (Chrome) fit without having to change any cables. I put the Black bars on mine, and it was comfy enought for a cross country trip.That job can be done in a couple of hours. If you go more than that, cables, & brake lines have to be sourced, and wire harnesses extended. That can take all day.

How did you determine what the right rise and pull back was for your size? Did you just extend from the stock bars up and out?
