Title: cheap and easy way to determine if bar risers are for you
Post by: viper on September 14, 2013, 07:52:16 PM


75mm stainless steel bolts £ 5 delivered

8mm steel spacers £15 delivered

this set up will lift the bars to 48mm ( same as most bar risers) you can take out spacers to reduce height, this set up is rock solid as  SS bolts are very strong and the spacers are a good grade steel, they are for axles on derby roller skates. Its just a mock up for a round the block trial before I start to fab my own spacers from some block aluminium I picked up for about  fiver each

I assume all the cables etc can stand the extra stretch?   :cool:

cables will stretch to 50mm no probs. the brake/clutch line is joined by a block that is bolted to the triple tree, you will need to undo this so the line can stretch up , the block is left dangling so needs to be tidyied up. if I ever change my lines to braided I will make this just one piece of brake line
