RISER BARS ????

[brocklanders023]

Also, surely if you have a flat bar higher up the stearer tube, your hands will be in a similar position. :?

As marin man says, not really as my risers sort of sweep back and up if that makes any sense. :?

Flatties for me and FTW!

If you want comfort but retro looks then i can definately recomend a flat bbs but with a lot of sweep. I have some syntace carbon bars on my khs. They have a 9 degree sweep and made a huge difference to comfort. Fluffychicken has some aluminium bars on his rocky mountain altitude but i can't remember what they are. Something posh i think. They have a really good sweep. Might be syncros?

My risers are 760mm wide

I just bought my first risers since my MK1 mustang

I'm going to stick them on my RC200, replacing perfectly good sub130s

And a stem that's less than a meter long.

And I'm taking all the gears off and popping 'modern' v brakes on :shock:

I'm sure many on here will think me a heathen, but I want to give it a go. I'm hoping it will handle a bit better.
