Fasst Flexx bar height???

[gr8ride4u2luv]

In February I think I'm going to drop some cash on a handle bar setup. I really want the Fasst Flexx bars. The stock handle bar height is shorter than what I would like. If I went with the fasst flex bars and the houser + 1 1/4 stem, would I get a taller than stock handle bar height? Or is there an alternative ( cheaper route ) ??

It would come out Taller.  But I think you are going with just about the most expensive bars out there.  But from what I have read on here everybody that has them loves them bars.  You could look into a set of Pro Taper bars with that riser and get the same height for less money.

No, the Flexx bars with a 3/4" riser is about 1" or more shorter then stock.That would put you about a half inch shorter then stock.

A cheaper route would be using risers. A set can be had for $20. I stayed with  stock stem and ordered a set of 3/4" risers at the same time. I wish I would have ordered 2" risers, but I didn't know any better. I did however ordered a set of 2" Rox Risers from Tech Quad Shop and will be installing them on top of my 3/4"  in a day or so. Holler at Steve over at TechQuad. This setup should put me a hair over stock.

I thought he said he was goiing with the Flex bars and +1 1/4 stem?  That should equal out to alittle taller that stock shouldnt it?

Nope. That'll put him about a half inch shy of stock. Look at the pic in my sig, that's with 3/4" risers, I might as well have drag bars.  :'(

ah ok.  Makes me glad I didnt decide to buy new bars and stuff this year I would have really screwed my self over on the height.

there is an atv style and a motocross style,  the atv style is higher.  i have an atv style coming for myself, i will tell you if it is the same height as stock or not.

Whats the big deal with the Flexx Bars?!?! 

[gr8ride4u2luv]

Yeah when you mount them please let me know about the height of them. I would really like to get the setup but dont want to be dissapointed.

wouldnt the 2" risers affect the cable length with a 1&1/4 inch houser stem?

[Colorado700R]

I have a 2 riser on my Zeta bars and the cables are about maxed out, I would imagine that the flex's would be similar

[1badazz_700r]

4gunz your gonna add 2" on top of the 3/4?  wont the cables be way to short?

I'll tell you tomorrow. These risers should put me at an inch over stock, I think I'll be maxed out, but we'll see. I'll snap some pics too.
