ashby-trials Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 hey guys a couple of weeks well april half term time i purchased some try-all bars and stem off a friend of mine there great bars and stem but thing is though i ride an onza t-mag 2005 spec 1 and ive still got the onza forks on and in the past few weeks as i have been growing lol. i have been feeling that the angle of my bike feels long with the forks would you recommend i buy some new forks like echo 1's or koxx 1's and what could my problem be actually as my bike feels different now but it has felt fine ever since i bought these bars and stem. comments please cheers andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamtrials Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 Obviously the bars and stem dont suit you and the bike.Go back to the old ones is they were good and make a few quid by selling the tryall ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtbjosh Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 'the angle of your bike feels too long'???? do you mean too low/high or slack, or the bars feeling too far too reach to, if its the reach you my need a different stem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hicks Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 why dont you just play around with the bar angle c if you can get them ina place where you feel comfortable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Drewery Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 You could try using some stackers to get the stem higher, as if you have grown the bars will feel lower for you and so you will feel too stretched on the bike. Try angling the bars back and sticking a stacker or two under you stem, should make a significant difference. If that fails, and you really do hate the feel of the try-all bars ans stem, stick your old bar and stem back on. Luke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
