what rise are the eastons? try another spacer if poss. Nothing wrong with the eastons, me, boon and danny mac all run eastons. Azonics are good though maybe a higher stem than what have you at mo 22-16 or 17 would be fine, best bet is to try it for a while and see if you like it I would go for a 90mm stem and get a bit of rise on it too. 24" ride nicer with a higher bars imo. Can then have a wider choice of lower rise but lighter bars, like eastons or azonics. the bars would probably be fine, maybe a little heavy. I run 25" wide bars and now find anything wider than 26" feel akward...
