What stem do I need to give me the same bar position as I have now, but on a H bar?

Current stem is 95 x 12°

Cheers

Ive gone from a 70mm to 100mm and seems to be about the same.

I was told adding 30mmm-40mm is around the sweet spot.

I'd say a 120x20ish.

Use 130mm stems with mine.
Try it and see, some advice on Jeffs site I believe.

10* only because I had it lying around... 🙂
Oh, and I put another 3mm spacer under my stem too...

I added 20-25mm of spacers and the same in stem length on my bike. there's a drop to H-bars when set at a comfy angle, i/o most bars having 20mm ish of rise.

Were you using a flat bar before or risers?

Stu - It's a JJ H bar (not loop, so presume 'old') and I'm going from a med to highish riser bar

In that case you're going to need an upright cattle prod. 😉

😆 Thought so 😆

The (slightly) more full story is the ByStickle will have a taller HT which should make the bar possible to use on

The SS rigid coming is less likely to fit, which is a pity as this is one is best suited
