what is the most popular bend for these bars. There is a 12degree, 14 degree, and the dana creech bend. Im going to be using them racing XC with a +2 stem. Im about 6 foot tall. I was thinking about getting the 12 degree. What is everyone else using. Any pictures?

I'm trying out the ATV high bend, I am 6'2 and also have a +2 stem, going to the track tomorrow to see how they feel. I have rode a set of the Creech bend but on a YFZ so it was a totally different feel compared to the R.

we use the dirtbike 14 and 12 but we also use a taller riser I have a trailtech riser and the wife has a moose riser 8mm. The wifes bars are to low for me and she says that mine are to high for her.
she is 5'5" and I am 6'.

There is 3/4" difference between the ATV and DB flexxbars.

I have the 12 degree ATV height/length.

The Creech bend is closer to the 14 degree I think.

I don't think pics are gonna help, it's more of a feel thing for you, maybe you can find someone in you area that has some so you can test them out, that was my deciding factor, i rode on a set of creech bends and liked them but were to low so i got the atv high.

Same, I rode the Creech's, but felt like the bars hard too much back sweep so I got the 12 degree.

Heres some pix of mine.

Have any other pics that are more level, so I can see the bars height from the front fenders? I ordered the same bars, and I have the same stem, and adapters. Just wanna see what mine will be like.
