Under seat steering handle bars.

Greets to all bent folk!

I am just finishing up a new under seat steering LWB bent I call
WildKat, and I was wondering if there are any other builder's out there
who have done USS bents. I am happy with the current setup, but would
like about 3 inches more on the current handlebar length (using granny
bike bars set up in reverse). Any ideas on a handlebar source - besides
hacking my own?

Here is the bike...

I hope to have more photos on the main site soon.

Cheers,
Brad

You're not putting any weight on them, so how about some aluminum
conduit and a bender? Or, can you just put the stem in front?

That may work - I do have a shoe bender, but have not tried the 3/4 inch
in it yet. The bars I use now are great for me, but my partner would
like an inch extra to be more comfortable.

Thanks,
Brad
