Delta Ahead Stem Riser
Has anyone used this stem riser before?

I'm considering purchasing this to rise my bars to be more even with my saddle, but I'm wondering if it makes the stem weaker and/or looks horrendous on the bike. Does anyone have this on their bike? Pics?

I have been using one for the same reason for over a year and a half--no problems. I got the silver one because it matches my stem and spacers. Recommended.
I'll see if I can grab a picture to post in the next few days, but I am going to be busy with family coming over for dinner friday and saturday.

I use it on one of my bikes. I had to put on a longer brake cable and housing for the front brake.

Thanks everyone. I pulled the trigger and bought one, installed it, and took it for a ride yesterday. It works great and the back/hands thank me!
