Wide bars...low rise...???

I was Google-imaging the Ragley Troof and ran across this setup:





Stem Point One Racining Split Second 50mm ltd edition nickle plated "BLING BLING"
Handle Bar Gravity 777

As far as aesthetics go, this is one of the sweetest looking bar/stem setup I've ever seen. Why do you suppose though...nobody (that I've seen) makes stoopid-wide HiRise bars? The wider your bar, the closer your face is to the stem. Like when you do a push-up. Wide stance= closer to the ground. Hands closer together= higher off the ground. I would think that the wider you get 'em, the higher you'd want'em.


The Gravity Light OS is available in 800, but only 25mm rise...though you can get a 710 at 40mm.


SIZES
Ø31.8 x 25mm rise x 710mm width
Ø31.8 x 25mm rise x 800mm width
Ø31.8 x 40mm rise x 710mm width
9°Back Sweep x 4°Up Sweep x 15°set back (710mm)
9°Back Sweep x 6°Up Sweep x 15°set back (800mm)



I know lotz of peeps be diggin the low rise these days, but I just don't like the taste of it.

Sup'wit'dat?
