The handlebars on my Sun EZ-Sport (same as easyracers) were too narrow and the wrist angle was all wrong. A friend who is a really good welder cut out the cross brace, cut the verticle tubes and rotated them to match my wrist angle and welded it all back together. What an improvement! Wrist & tendon pain are getting less every day. It's the best fifty bucks I've spent in a long time. bk
You should tell Sun about your mod, maybe they'd consider incorporating it into their design.

FYI, RANS offers a three way positioning bar fopr $65. I think it could work with an Easy Racers product.
