Riser bars - cheap?
I'm just wondering where I can pick up some decent riser bars for around $30. I am about 200 lbs, so I need something that won't flex too much.

I just bought a set of Origin 8 Urban Pro Rise handlebars on eBay. Cut them down to about 43cm, sanded off the edges and slapped some Oury grips on. They're rock-solid.
Do a search for "c-lite riser". They're going for about 20 bucks shipped.

these guys are really dependable ordered many things from them. I bought the already shortened and powder coated white risers. They seem solid to me though I am only 135 pounds.

Try Velomine.com for Origin 8 risers. I just bought a black riser bar from them and it was $15.00. The center is 31.8, so it fit my stem perfectly and the diameter of the rest of the bar is able to accept standard mountain bike brake levers. I also bought some All City Track grips from them and they work very nicely. I took about 1-1/2" off of each end of the bars and I think they are perfect now.
