After a few bone crunching but still very enjoyable recent rides on my rigid P7 ( 
....) I've decided to upgrade the old girl a bit before my bones creak any more!
Pace sus forks naturally but would a short stem & riser bar improve the handling or are the older frames not really suited to this?
Currently has 135mm SK8 quill stem (approx 10* rise) and a hot rod flat bar 580mm.
Options: short ahead stem 120mm, 660mm width, slight riser bar.
Any thoughts? (19" 1996 P7 with 22.5/23" TT. I'm 6')
Cheers, Matty
