Stem Rise?
hi, recently I replaced my flat bar with a riser, my flat was something like 580mm w/ 5 degree rise, I think the riser is 686mm with a 9 degree rise, so heres the thing, I feel like I have lost some of that racing position on the bike that I like and I am feeling a little to upright, probably the shorter reach to the bars, so if I get a stem with say 0 degree rise should that drop my bars back down to more of race type position, my stem now has a 6 degree rise w/ 120mm. Any suggestions, a recommendation of stem i might want to try would be great also. thanks

Jprice I know exactly what your going through...man. My old bike had flat bars but then I bought a new one. What I did was move the uprised bar forward a little bit. . I am not sure if that helps but ok.
