Bar riser recommendations please - MC680x0 - 29-08-14
I'm only 170cm and short arms, I would like some risers to make things a bit more comfortable..
Seen these:

But look a bit cheap and not fitting true and tight (in the images at least)
Can anyone recommend something they have actually used and find good quality

Cheers mate.
Shame on me... Not using search. Apologies, will try harder next time

I have just received the risers from M&P although it looks like they will bring the bars closer more than raise them , as the bike already has the standard curved angle raisers on already.
How the hell do I get the top of the clamp off around the bar. I've tried to prise off the metal circles in the clamp - I though these were caps but they aint moving ??

If you mean the little chrome buttons, they are only caps.. Could be that someone has glued them on?

you're frekin aving a laff. OMG. No wonder they wont budge. I was using a screwdriver to prise but I was starting to scratch the riser as I applied more force. I thought they were just caps. Suppose I'l have to drill them off - or any other ideas?
Re: Bar riser recommendations please - Doddsie - 04-09-14
They are only plastic, sharp blow with a screwdriver should either knock then off or break them.
Re: Bar riser recommendations please - MC680x0 - 04-09-14
probably break them which I wanted to avoid but looks like they are getting foobared in a mo
Re: Bar riser recommendations please - Doddsie - 04-09-14
I got a set off ebay a couple of years ago for about £3.
Re: Bar riser recommendations please - MC680x0 - 04-09-14
yeah, but I could only find the black caps, hence I didnt want to damage these.
