Sorry for the dumb question but..........
I want to replace my current (stock) set of bars on my Cannondale F4 with a set of riser bars. Does anyone know what size and spec the new bars should be and does anyone have any recommedations?
Thanks

What stem do you have? Need to know the clamp area size ie 25.4mm or 31.8mm.0

Its the stock stem that came with the bike - thanks

Had a google, and it says a 31.8mm stem, so need the oversize 31.8mm bar.
Width, rise and sweep are all personal, and you'll see a few choices. Might be worth looking at a carbon bar to make the maximum upgrade, or a light weight alloy one such as a Easton monkeybar SL0 -
you might need the oversize bar if your oe bar has the plastic insert/spacer under the clamp ( you can't take it off and get it onto a riser bar )
mine did on my cannondale so i bought an oversize monleylite riser bar (31.8mm)0 -
thanks to both!
Apologies for my lack of google skills
