I was looking to get some new handlebars and I noticed that some places online offer four different types of bend: Normal, high, low and quad. Can anyone explain the difference so that I can decide which kind would best suit me. Any info will be helpful.
 
to be honest i wouldnt buy handle bars unless you know what they feel like first its all preferance...if u can hold them in ur hands to see how they feel or you have rode a bike that has a type of bend that you like its ok but theres so many choices i know its a pain i find one i like and try to remember it...im using yz250 renthals now there low and wide,the quad bars sit up higher and the highs and lows are like dirtbike bars
 
I have a stock set on my warrior, and my brother has a low profile set on his. Im tall (6'2") and feel like im reaching down too much when i ride his. I also feel like im gonna fall over the front when hitting any jumps. I think the extra 1-2" of height on my stock bend are optimal for a taller person. Just my opinion though.
 
I have banshee bend bars and they feel perfect for me, I'm somewhere between 5'10" and 5'11". I would just stick with ATV bend.
 
Raptor bend bars are my personal favorite. They're the same height as the stock bars, just a little narrower and swept back. I can't stand quads with low handlbars, you can't ride standing up on the damn thing without being hunched over.
