Looking for some new bars for my new Nukeproof build.
I currently have 38mm rise on my current Mega TR and Scout.
Thinking of dropping to 25mm or 20mm rise - what difference will I notice with lower rise?

If you want your grips to be at the same height as before, you will need a longer steerer, higher rise stem, or a frame with a lower BB to compensate for the lower bars.

You should notice more weight on the front wheel than before with (All other things being equal) more grip in corners and a more planted front wheel on climbs.
