What stem do I need to give me the same bar position as I have now, but on a H bar?
Current stem is 95 x 12°
Cheers
Anyone?
Ive gone from a 70mm to 100mm and seems to be about the same.
I was told adding 30mmm-40mm is around the sweet spot.
What about rise?
I'd say a 120x20ish.
Use 130mm stems with mine.
Try it and see, some advice on Jeffs site I believe.

What about rise?
10* only because I had it lying around... 🙂
Oh, and I put another 3mm spacer under my stem too...

Apologies for the crappy iPhone pics, but you get the idea...
doesn't Jeff say to go with what you already use?
I added 20-25mm of spacers and the same in stem length on my bike. there's a drop to H-bars when set at a comfy angle, i/o most bars having 20mm ish of rise.
I've gone from 90 to 70mm
Were you using a flat bar before or risers?

New loop H bar or old H Bar?
What bar you replacing?
Stu - It's a JJ H bar (not loop, so presume 'old') and I'm going from a med to highish riser bar
In that case you're going to need an upright cattle prod. 😉
😆 Thought so 😆
The (slightly) more full story is the ByStickle will have a taller HT which should make the bar possible to use on
The SS rigid coming is less likely to fit, which is a pity as this is one is best suited
