Title: Handlebar risers
Post by: cawe on Tuesday, 13 July 2021, 02:08 PM
I have just purchased a set of Renthal ultra low 758's but I'm having trouble finding 50mm risers. Question dose 22mm riser suit 22.2 Renthal handlebar and dose the riser have a bib at the bottom to lock into tree or is it a flat base?
Any help would be greatly appreciated 😁

I'd say Yeah, it would fit no problem, you want it tight.        It's gotta be tight to be good . . . .     :whistling:

Hi, interesting as I have slightly higher bars than yours but am also wanting to fit some risers, so I'm watching this thread with interest.

Vlad, i have some 30mm risers with longer bolts. Yours if you want them, so much more wind push with them fitted, didnt like at all.

Works fine but still not enough for me :)

Due to the angle of the forks, any increased height will mean the bar will be (marginally) closer to you.
