Hi all
,I'm new to all this so plz bare with me
I'm after some 'riser' bars for my 2010 trek 8000 hardtail. I'm only a casual rider so they not going to be put to the limit but i'm unsure as which would be my best option for some mid range bars (Richey carbon a good option)?

Any suggestions will be seriously looked at

Many Thanks to any replies in advance[/b]

    couple of questions to help figure whats best:

    what are you trying to change by changing your bars, what do you want to achieve with a new bar? lighter, wider, stronger etc

    what size bars do you need, standard or oversized? (this relates to how thik the bar is at the stem)

    what width bars are already fitted, do you want wider or narrower?

    what is your budget?

    with all of that info we can give you the best recommendations. as it happens, i have some ritchey carbon bars which i love, nice and wide, nice and stiff, nic and light, i think i bought mine for 65 quid.
