Anyone fitted Bar-backs/Risers to the Rockster?

[riceburner]

I'm currently riding a fair bit more gently than previously (will tell you why some other time), and have realised that the Rockster pulls me forwards into a fairly "sporty" riding position, that puts a lot of weight on my wrists at sub 70mph speeds (ie on normal A-roads, which is 80% of my riding).

I'd like to be a bit more upright on the bike, so am thinking that maybe a pair of bar-backs/risers fitted underneath the standard bars will help. Has anyone else done this on a Rockster?

For reference I'm 5'10" tall.

Cheers Papa - would you know if they would send a pair to the UK? (their website doesn't say anything about international shipping.)

I hope you don't mind, but I name-dropped you when I emailed them to ask....

When I get the time, I make them myself, but never make enough, as people keep wanting to buy them and i get lazy

One-inch risers made huge difference for me: alleviated back/shoulder/wrist pain. No wind protection on my Rockster, Sargent seat, 6' with long torso.

Just to mention that they've been on my bike for a month or so now and work very well.

I picked up a set of MV risers and love them. Due to their design, you can move them in a 2" radius from the original position. 2" back, 2" up, or 2" diagnoal up. They are a bit bulky but it's a fair trade for the adjustability. Plus, my GPS hides them anyway.

Not my pic but it shows how they look.
