EXTRA INFO:
The JC/PC Pedals are half white, half black. I run the pins on the white side flush for pedal grinds. I also run a white half on that side so I always know what side is the grind side.

As for the bars, they are exactly Lumberjacks, with 4 deg. of up sweep, making them 8.6" tall. Your hands are in the same position, your wrists thank you for the up sweep.

The Weight for all of those wondering: 22.8 lbs.
