Hi
Looking to raise my bars a touch and am about to fit a 50mm long Raceface Affect stem with 8 degrees rise but was wondering if there is anything else out there?
50-70mm long with a bit more rise
Cheers
Steve
Bloody none of them. Best I could find was a Renthal Apex, which is still only something like 6 or 8 🙁
Not much point to rise in that short a stem. Syntace Megaforce us another option but same deal.
Hi
Hope do a 31.8 clamp 70mm with 25 degrees rise so hoped something similar with the larger clamp.
I guess that makes the effective length about 55-60mm or thereabouts but with decent rise
Maybe it doesn’t exist
Cheers

Why not get bars with a larger rise? Got to be easier.
I was going to suggest the DMR Defy. Though on paper it only has 5mm rise, if you compare the 2 stems it [i]look[/i] like it has more rise.

...or bars with more rise is a good idea.
Hi
Thanks for the replies.
Bars with more rise is a good idea-I have some on another bike but thought a new stem was a cheaper way forward in the first instance.
Cheers
