Ape hangers transform a Street Glide’s riding position and stance, but anything 12″ or taller requires extended brake/clutch cables and wiring — factor that into your budget alongside the bars themselves.

Buying tips
- Anything 12″ or taller requires extended brake and clutch cables — budget for these alongside the bars themselves.
- Control wires typically also need replacement with extended versions (e.g., from NAMZ) once you go past 12″.
- Decide your target riding stance before choosing height — 12″ and 14″ produce noticeably different ergonomics on a Street Glide.
