Has anyone ever built a dresser bar themselves with a tube bender? Was it worth the effort?

I'd have to guess that it's not worth the effort. Getting them equal would be a real challenge, then trying to find a chrome shop...
It'd be different if you couldn't buy them.
NAH!

if it's not going to cost you a fortune, then try it. Chrome is nice, but you will come up with something.

I've done it for other bikes ,but found it to be not worth the effort and cost for the T/bird ..

If you just wanted to paint them black ,then maybe ?


Though I have noticed the front bars I got are not fully chromed on the top attachment plate .

The rears are and both have nice chromed domed washers etc ??
