I just got some 1" risers (new) off ebay. Made by Precision Engineering - billet aluminum w/longer bolts, for $54.95 shipped. They don't have any more listed, but I'm trying to get them to post up as a vendor here. Good looking stuff, will install them this weekend and post a review. |

Precision Engineering is already a sponsor here, and their stuff is top notch. |

Itileman, I'll be interested in your review. I'm still thinkig 2" risers, though. Are you confident the Precision risers will fit the Ulysses? Thanks |

I put them on this afternoon. Only took a few minutes and the fit was perfect. No problems with cables/wires. The 1" was all I needed to get a comfortable reach. Just got back from the test ride and am very pleased with the product. Now I'll go read the sponsors' list. (Message edited by itileman on March 27, 2009) |

I want the bars as much back as up. The pics look like the Precision risers go straight up--is that an illusion? Or does the rake (slight as it is) make a difference? |

They go up at the same rake as the tree, so there's a small bit of pull back. The small bit of difference in height and pull back was all that I needed to change the angle of the bar to get really comfortable. Given my occupation, my hands and wrists tend to get beaten up and pretty sore. Have to wonder if the Rox won't require cable, brake lines and wiring changes. Had that issue last year with my Low Rider with just two inches of riser height going from a 4" to a 6". |
