terry26rims Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Good evening all. I recently ended up in a heap after my bars snapped at the clamp and will have to buy a new set. OBVIOUSLY! But there are two types, RISER and FLAT. I belive my broken one is a flat. (Standard off my old Saracen 2.SIX H) But what are the benefits of each? Also is the bar width measured end to end in a straight line or as if the bar was perfectly straight? Many thanks Terry W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncy H Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 You have to use riser bars, once you use them they feel so much nicer than flats. I reccomend the trialtech riser bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Risers I reccommend either the trialtech risers or the old style Zoo! risers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reccomend the trialtech riser bars.i had try all flat bars and thay were perfect,depends mostly on your setup,if you had flat ones,buy flat,riser would change feel of the bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry26rims Posted August 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 I ride a stock, do they feel ok on a stock or are they best suited for mods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maladie Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 I would say risers, get a low-rise stem and a pair of either Trialtech or Monty Riser bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 I would say risers, get a low-rise stem and a pair of either Trialtech or Monty Riser bars.that´s another option,but it´s more expensive and i don´t like monty bars in general,best shaped risers are 09 try all rage bars imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam 94 Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Risers 100% make such a big difference in your riding, something like tryall rage bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mission Prodigy Trials. Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Risers are better for me but that's just personal preference .. Try out both types before making up you mind up dude .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
