Lots of value in this handleber, perfect for my Lectric XP 3.0
I had an overly stretched out feeling while riding my Lectric XP 3.0. On the new 4.0 version, they chose a different stem to solve this issue. Some riders swapped out their stem and bar for a BMX setup. But, others recommended this bar and it's perfect! Of all available choices, it's the least expensive, performs well and fits best with the original styling of the bike.Riding position with these bars is upright, the bike lends itself to that by default. I'm about 5'9" and I can reach the handlebars with a slight bend in my arms, where I was basically riding around with my arms fully extended on the stock bar. These are much more comfortable.The black color matches the original bars perfectly, if you like how these bikes look, you'll probably still like it with this handlebar installed. This handlebar has a noticeable backsweep to it, but that's why it's more comfortable and how it reduces reach. Pictures show before and after.The Lectric XP is a heavy bike with electric assist. I'm not counting grams on this bike. The specifications say this handlebar weighs 260 Grams. I did not confirm on a scale. It's up to you if that's a lot or not, to me it's fine. it feels normal in the hands, about the same as the stock bar it replaces.Installation? It's a handlebar. The job to swap bars on the Lectric XP is a little more involved than on a non-electric bike, but if you've got a set of allen keys you'll get it done quickly.

Better comfort than stock Lectric bike handlebars.
Appear to be high quality replacement handle bars. Direct swap for our Lectric 3.0XL bikes. Can’t speak for anybody else ,but for us the comfort is a major upgrade! I did both bikes in about 2-2.5 hours. Carefully used some break cleaner to soften the loktite on the break assembly and handlebar clamp. Very happy with no more wrist discomfort on rides. Recommend.

So Comfy!
I had a set of flat bars and a really long stem on my Raleigh hybrid bike that made riding quite uncomfortable (well, a frame size too big and a really hard seat too). I figured that I needed to just get a different bike and start over. Well, coronavirus happened and I couldn't sell my bike. So, I decided to spend a few bucks on some parts and upgrade what I had to see if it would help. I went from a 100mm step to a 35mm stem, flat 670mm handlebars with no rise to these handlebars (I think they are roughly the same width) with a couple inch rise. The bike feels completely different. Yes, it's still a bit big for me, but I am not leaned so far over that my back and neck hurt anymore. I just wanted to go out riding with my wife on super casual rides (8-10mph, shorts and flops, bike trails, etc).These bars are an improvement over my old for 2 reasons. First, they are a couple inches taller and have a swept back design that's probably 4" closer to me than flat bars. Couple this with the shorter stem and I'm sitting nice and upright rather than leaned forward. Second improvement is more handlebar real estate - I have more space for a bell, computer, accessories, etc. Although they are ~670mm wide, they are closer to 800mm if you measure all the usable space you've got. Pretty neat!Obviously these won't work well for your road bike or mountain bike, but for touring or cruising, these are great! Weight wise, they feel similar to the flat bars I took off, but I honestly didn't weigh them. They seem durable and if anything happens, I'll update here, but as of today, I've ridden with them for quite a few rides and am pleased.

Great product
These are a great upgrade for my e-bike with mountain bike style handlebars. These provide much relief from wrist fatigue because they swoop back making it much more comfortable to ride

Not bad. Comfy.
Tubing is a little thinner than I'm comfortable with but it is for a road bike so not a huge deal (so far).This was the widest bar I could find with this amount of backsweep at a reasonable price. I think there are some $90+ bars available with better construction but I didn't want to drop that much before I decide if I like the shape.

Worked Great! Got My Hands In a More Comfortable Riding Position
I replaced our OEM bike handle bars with this one: UPANBIKE Urban Road Bike Bicycle Retro Handlebar. The OEM handle bars on our eBikes are straight and get uncomfortable after ride awhile. This new handlebar has a sweep back design to get my hands into a more comfortable position for cruising.
