Morning all,

Been looking at a cheap way to try out the longer bar, shorter stem combo on my Voodoo Bizango 29er - current set up is the stock 80mm/680mm

Seen these in the Planet X sale

Do you think these are worth a punt?

They'll be fine, though would you want a slight rise to the bar?

Current bar is flat. Would you advise a bar with a rise then?

No, not if flat already and you like it.
If you use a million spacers under the stem, then maybe a riser bar in place of spacers may work.

Great prices on those though.

too good to resist, pulled the trigger this morning. I love getting shiny things delivered to work, I'm almost looking forward to next week now!
