alright so in a few weeks im ordering crows and im leaving them 20 wide, and right now im riding 18 wide 23 high (with scs) slayer bars and ive been told my bars feel really high, But i kinda like the feeling, but then i got on my friends scoot he rides 20 wide 22 high and it feel alright but idk if i could like it all the time, but then i was talking to hep greg an he said 23 is kinda high but also stilla good height for 20 but he also said i should go to 22.5

and i was just wondering anyone who rides 20 wide could tell me what height they ride an like what they think i should order height wise oh an btw im 5,9 and 16 so im still growing keep that in mind :]

your bars should be as wide or slightly wider than your shoulders
and for height it should be whereever your palms are when you leave your arms down
or by your pubic bone

well when you ride crows(or anything with backsweep i think) 20 feels like 18,my friend has 20crows and i have 20slayers, and mine still feel alot more wide.
 
well I ride 20.5 tall by 20 wide inward Raw's, And im about to get crows too I Think you should get 22 tall for your height, Because im about as tall as you. im starting to like the feel of taller bars now, style looks WAY better

i rode 23 high like 2 days ago and did like it lol so yea i plan on riding them prolly and prolly gonna order my crows with the hic but not use it just stick with my scs idk
 
HIC is nice, light, and does the job while being flush with other parts. If you run hic I suggest getting yourself a 1 1/4 clamp like a district or half knuck or something. These are just easier to use and hold the bars from getting outta line with the fork. SCS gets the job done and is very VERY strong which ends up putting all the force on your deck and headtube causing you to break decks more often.
