From your user name I'm guessing you do tricks more than actual riding around the city. But if you ride around the city and want a more upright position, I'd suggest keeping your stem and getting some "Priest" bars or 3 speed cruiser bars. Personally I think one should just man up and learn how to ride bullhorns or track drops in the city (which is perfectly do-able if you don't have a ridiculous saddle-to-bar drop and actually use the drops).
you obviously didnt read my post. it's basically a beach cruiser to me. i dont live in a city.. although i do ride philyl a lot, but when i do it's for bmx street riding
