is the extended handle tube straight? Mine looks curved.

It is supposed to be straight I believe. The handle pieces have to slide into each other to collapse it down; the handle has to relatively straight to do that.

I haven't tested it on curved surface. My dash is slanted and it grips it like a welder's hand.

Mine are also straight. They have the ridges where the bend SHOULD be, but they are not bent! :\

there seems to be springback between the handles. I sure hope I answered this correctly.

I had my pan for 5 years, my handle is sloped, maybe new model is straight.

The handle is curved. Placed on a flat surface, brush side down, the arch in the handle is about 2 inches off the table surface. That includes the amount added by the brush itself.

yes, all four are curved. this is a little on the heavier side than most flat irons I have had.

Not that it's curved, it's bowed making it difficult to install. For the 5 it took almost an hour. After installation they do look very nice. Hope this helps

Mine was straight, no issues but would recommend you return the tree if it bothers you.

It's straight, but my rims are offset and it works perfectly fine. Just remember to inflate after mounting, then deflate -completely- (remove valve core) so tube can move inside tire and assume the offset position. Then reinflate and you're done.

Mine is slightly out of true laterally. Freewheel ready. Just have a chainwhip.

mine is always a little bit off center, never can get it just right, but it's not all the way around by the handle... that would be frustrating!

Have you had any problems with the curved handle? Does it feel any different compared to the typical straight handles?

Mine is not, it is straight. It is a fun conversation piece and has held up very well. I am hard on phone cases.

If it is mounted opn the handle bar then you will be able to angle it to your preference. I mounted mine on the top tube with a horizontal angle. It allows me to keep my speedometer on the handle bar.

The unit adjusts to a variety of angles since very few tubes on a bike are truly horizontal or vertical. As you can see in the product photos it can be angled a lot or none at all. I can't picture a tube angle where this unit wouldn't work.

BEATS ME, I SENT MINE BACK. I believe the bite valve was straight, as was the place where the tube exits the cap. 'Believe', not sure. I sent mine back, unused, as the tube was too short to be useable.
