There are different ways to raise one's stem. If you have a bike with a threadless stem now, you can add a stem riser. They usually cost $20-$30.

Or if you need a tall 1" quill stem, this one is 250mm tall.

Or this one for a mountain bike sizing, that is 180mm tall with an adjustable stem on top of it.

There are a lot of options out there, but you might have to search around to find what you need.
