Clerictgm mk2 Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 I want to switch to 70x35 stem. Reach feels good, but it's 16mm lower than 90x35 and I like the height of 90x35 more. So maybe 70x35 + Arcade bars would be a good combination? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 High risers are actually higher, but it's a different shape and if I'm right it's lower when it's at the correct bar angle for street type stuff but gives more of a backsweep. So I think the answer to your question is yes... Well done on making a decent topic for once, please keep it up haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEON Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) Tarty have a good comparison pic on their site. The actual total rise on both ends is the same, but because the TT have much more upsweep, your hands don't get to use that height, the arcade bars are much flatter so your whole hand sits at that height, not just the very end of it with your wrists turned in. If The TT had the same upsweep they'd be about half the height of the arcades. Don't be fooled. Arcade bars will give you quite a bit more rise. This.

Clerictgm mk2 Posted August 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Well, I'll try this until I'll get my Arcade bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clerictgm mk2 Posted August 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 I'm switching periodically from brakeless to "with". There are things at both sides I love to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clerictgm mk2 Posted August 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) Well, I'll try this until I'll get my Arcade bars. Well, this setup turned up like very cool. Just 4 additional mm (was 46, now 50) of stackers done their job. The comfiest setup I ever rode. Really comfy on back wheel and divinely on two, despite of short stem.
