Try wider bars, like 30" or so. If you don't like em you can cut them down in size. I tried them and can't go back... Rise is more of a fit issue than a control issue IMO. I like risers so I can mount bars closer to the headtube, seems to handle the chop better but it may just be in my head, LOL. My favorite bar is Sunline V1, 745 mm width and the higher rise model (they make a high and low in that length). My third bar is on order now at the shop, looking forward to getting it. They do suck in the tight stuff though...
