Hi newbie here ,

I have bought this bike from halfords http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_810731_langId_-1_categoryId_165534#tab2 it's the 20" frame size .Now the handle bars are a little lower than i want and am wondering if anyone can tell me if this riser will fit my bike http://www.amazon.co.uk/Handlebar-stem-raiser-fits-steerers/dp/B0039Z6ANO/ref=sr_1_19?ie=UTF8&qid=1365796934&sr=8-19&keywords=Adjustable+Bike+Stem any help appreciated thanks.Sorry if i have posted in wrong section :)

    Yes i think it would fit most bikes use a 1 1/8th steerer now but i have never used one and never seen one fitted. I would think you would be better of with an adjustable stem rather than this stem raiser but as i have never used the stem raiser i wouldnt know... May be worth giving halfords an email just to make sure of the steerer tube size.

    Fitted the same stem raiser to the same bike for someone, no problems at all.
