I hate being stooped over when standing, i find that i have soo much more control over the bike with the bars up high, everyone always mocks my riser's when they see it in the flesh but i let them have a ride and they always comment on how much easier it is, but the really strange part is when i see these guys again they are still riding stooped over complaining of a bad back..

Your total height wont be far off mine as the bars i use are very flat with hardly any rise to them. Post a pick of yours as i was thinking about a damper and was wondering how to do it whilst retaining the height.
