Just got a set of handlebars [18" ape hangers] and discovered they do not have a knurled center section....soooooo....any chance they will remain in place without being knurled? Should I get them knurled [probably costing as much as the bars themselves], or is there another method. I have not yet clamped them down so I don't yet know how tight they will be held.
They will be installed ~ 55 degrees from vertical so there will be some arm pressure on them. Or should I just try them and go from there? I sure don't want them to move while going down the road.
