I'm running those risers too... but in carbon! Also looks like its got a lot more rise than yours. I chopped off the bar-end reinforcements and put on Snafu BMX grips. Not sure how wide they are.

I put my Paul lever on right where the bars drop into the rise part. It effectively raises the position of the lever since it's angled downwards slightly. It's kinda hard to explain and I don't feel like taking another photo of it.



The HED3 is a joke.
