Riser bar question> sweep or no sweep?
Aloha All,
I currently use a nitto b201aa (1.5" rise no sweep )bar chopped down (narrowed) and still need some more height. I would raise my stem but I have a nitto reversible stem that basically gives me about an inch to work with in height. So, those of you who rock the riser :
a)what height do ya use (1, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, or 3 inches)?
b) does it have a sweep and how is that working for ya?

its 50.5 x 55 . The standover height (st 50.5) is perfect but the tt (55)has me a little stretched out, the stem is 60mm and a 1.5 riser right now. I hope to change it to a 55mm and a 2.5 rise riser for more height and a more upward riding position. (I'm 5' 7.5" if that helps any)

Yeah, I was thinking about that. But umm for lack of a better reason I'm not too keen on what it might look like. **** it I'll try it but I guess I need another reason to spend money, haha.
as far as a drop stem, I believe that it is a drop stem 58 degrees of drop and rise if I flip it. I believe the jaguar stems are ony as short as 80 mm, pearls are 60 mm and the nitto deluxes are 50mm. I may jus get a deluxe but it does not look as its name implies.
