Starling Murmur - Playing around with high rise bars.

 My steerer is too short to add any spacers therefore I need to swap bars to raise the front end. I'm trying to see how high is too high. It will probably go back to my other bars and put these back on the Krampus as they work well on the Krampus. I have only had two rides on them and I think they are a bit high. The front feels a little light and you really have to weight it in turns. They seem fine on way up though but you are sitting quite upright.

 Also liked the look of the braced riser bars on the Mone full sus bike and though I would give them a go. The front on that is way lower than mine - IIRC he has 130mm travel on the front and I have 160mm

 Looks 'dirty' Big Grin
What's your take on those new bars? Doesn't feel too high?

 They were too high at the time - the front wasn't getting enough weight and was washing out. IIRC they're 83mm rise. Altho i'm now currently running 70mm rise and 20mm spacers so even higher. I think my riding position has changed so i'm weighting the front more now. Plus I have changed fork to an Ohlins coil which are super supple therefore have way more grip than the Pike.
