I have a trekking bar on my current commuter that also has 23 in ETT with 90mm 35 deg riser, and that has worked out really good.

I've wanted to do a trekking bar for a long time. I finally got around to getting a setup, but the stem I had planned on using isn't quite fitting it as... safely as I'd like it to.

Your setup looks really cool, with those grips- I'll probably be sending you a PM for advice on my H.S.
