Risers : how wide?
thinking of going the "riser" path.
currently running 40-42 cm road drops/bullhorns. how wide of a riser bar are you guys running? |
and what risers?
|
i started a thread just like this simply called "risers" it has 4+ pages of info. use search to find it.
|
|---------------------------------------------This wide---------------------------------------------------|
|
bar width is personal preference. this goes for any type of bars.
|
The usual rule for road bike fitting is to multiply your hat size by 4.1 and then add the age at which you lost your virginity.
I ride a 44. |
what if he hasn't lost his virginity yet?
|
That might explain his confusion. He can substitute the age at which he decided to save it for Jesus.

just wide enough to fit my ourys
|
Shoulder width. It's comfy that way and you get more leverage. There's a reason road bars aren't 8 inches wide.
|
Double Wide.... YEEEEHAAAAAAAA
|
As wide as you like. I cut them so that the front of the grip just barely touches the rise.
|
To match your drops/bullhorns cut the risers ~10cms wider.
