    Having been use to Santa Cruz 760 bars for a few years on Bronsons & really like them, I’m now building my first 29er & interested in what bars people have been running on there Tallboys though I’ll be building a Hightower

    Was thinking of sticking with 20mm rise but do they ride better with a flat ish bar?

    Any Feed back appreciated

    Stick with the bar shape you like, change stem if that gives you too much height. Make sure your saddle to bar drop and reach is where you need it to be.

    On a 29er very much depends on what size frame frame you have. On my XL tallboy I have a riser bar and a 10 degree rise stem, but high saddle height means higher bars as the head tubes don’t really increase in length enough as you go up the size range.
