Know the length? I need shorter as I have shorter bars & like to ride with arms closer to body.

Seems to be about 4.5 to 5" where inside butts against bar. There are shorter versions for Gripshift but I don't have those.

Seems like the shorter bars are what make the difference. Grips don't play a part in that. These are great by the way.

Measures 5 and 1/8 horizontally by 3 and 3/8 vertically. I hope this is helpful.

Just measured them 5.5".... you can possibly make the handlebar shorter if the 5.5" won't work for you

I am 6'3" and wear a 35 inch sleeve. I love them but, I wish I had another inch or two. Of course it depends on the fit of your bike. I prefer to put more of my elbow on the pad versus the forearm in front of the elbow. When I put the forearm on it creates a bit of a lever and I actually have to hold onto the bar end. With the elbow on it I can just rest my hands. I find it more relaxing. These things are a great. They take the stress off your arms and shoulders and allow you to relax. I love them.

It boils down to how long the grip is that covers the handle bar. I ordered xl but I ended up getting small. By time I realized it, it was too late. Still usable I just have to adjust my grip shifters. If I can help any other way let me know. Can even provide pics if needed. They are deffinately worth the money though.

It would be diffucult because there is nowhere for your feet except on the peddles,you could let them be along for the ride and work the arm bars from the seat, but that is about the only way I see to do it. Hope this is helpful.

I'm 5' 6" and I love using mine. If you flip the bar over, the grips are higher, flip it back and they are lower. So you can choose the side you want to use.

I think the arms are way to short. One bike at best if you want to mess with the attachment.

Try removing one of the bars inserted into the side rails to make it shorter. That worked for us.

On my girlfriends bike it's 19" although the handlebars are adjustable by 1"-2" and the seat bracket has some adjustment to it as well. I'm guessing you can make that as short as 17" or as long as 21" depending on how you adjust seat and handlebars.

I had my husband modify it, so it fit me a little better. I am 5'1". I could of ridden it the way it was, but I like to be a little closer to the handle bars and have a book on them while I ride. Hope that helped.

I returned this item because I didn't like how u needed to bend the arms to make it "fit" my bike. My suggestion is to talk to a pro shop and get their opinions as they are more qualified than I am.

Hi Wotgral. In regard to your question concerning the handle bars on the Ardyne 6 exercise bike. The reach for the handles is fairly short one. The handles do not go a long distance from the seat. My arms are considered to have a long reach and i could use a little longer distance. I've owned approx 3 bikes and the distance on this bike is the best so far. I hope my answer to your question was helpful. Good luck with your decision

I agree with Linda O., check out sbyke's website to know for sure. I ride my son's sbyke ( he's only 6 and tiny so we used the shorter handlebar extension ) and I'm 5'4". A person 5'10" should be fine riding it using the longer extension that's included.

you will probably have to stretch a little to reach the handlebars. also, make sure you are ok with only 1 inch of rear suspension travel

I can tell you this, I think you are too large for this bike. I am 6 feet tall and I think it is too short in the legs. I cannot get the full extension I would like but it is ok for me just to get around

Is not bad at all. But get the longer ones. These ones go to about above the elbow

A person could use this length but a shorter one would be easier to use. Altho, my grandson has girl friends who use his whip. They just have to be careful not to pop themselves.
