nicolasp1405 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 People always told me that a high front is better for manuals, bonny hops, but i was wondering when do we know its to high? Is there a way to know what would be the best height for me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEON Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) Stack up with spacers 5mm at a time, start from the bottom & work up. I set it so that it pulls up easily but doesn't make the back wheel stuff too hard, if it's too high I find it's actually harder to pull up, there's an optimum hand/foot distance for any bike or rider, find it. Luckily my perfect spot is right at the end of the steerer tube. I've got big Da Bomb Tactic risers, but if I put Trialtech hi rise bars on then it's not quite high enough, there's a fine line.

nicolasp1405 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 How higher is the dabomb compare to the tt high riser? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEON Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Probably around an inch higher but the trialtech has more upsweep and backsweep. I prefer the Da bombs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEON Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Then you need bigger bars or a longer steerer tube. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
