Raleigh Twenty with mid 1970's cowhorns.

I have fitted the cowhorns on my Twernty. I like it, but not too sure if risers are better suited. Before and after pics with a more back tilt in1st pics.

I'd leave the 1970's cowhorns in the 1970's where they belong, the other bars look better.

Pull a wheelie with those

Thing with these shopper bikes is they're pretty much a blank canvas to try out all sorts of stuff, so if you feel comfortable riding your experiments then go for it

We did something extremely similar to a Shopper in the 1980s! Used it as a jump bike. The frame broke after a few days.

Choose whatever is the most comfortable.

If it works for you then what's the worry

PS - the A4 paper tray at the back seems to be at odds with the rebellious cowhorn look

I personally prefer the riser bars. Cowhorns are for the crossbar bikes. lol.
Tghe side view looks daft an d wrong to me. Experiment over.

I have a BMX with bars and was thinking of fitting them, but stayed with the originals. After removing the cowhorns, I think it looks better. lol
