Hi Folks.

Had my crm Mk2 for 5 Years now, Ive bought a few other bikes for the trail that are supposed to be better but I still always come back to my old faithfull. One thing I have problems with is in the riding position when stood up, I always feel as if I am hanging on the bars, I feel as if I need the bars higher and further forward or mabey footrests further back, any ideas ?.

I had noticed that phenomenon when my eldest lad had a MKI, we were prior to him selling it going to try some of those bar risers in there.I think they are made by a Canadian Company, google search maybe ?
The AR i ride has ergos, that feel far more modern, and comfortable.

Hi

I have bar risers which are adapted handlebar clamps, they raise the bar about 20-25mm, for me (5'9") its great.

opps just realised that the link to the picture in that post does not work but you get the idea.

Thanks for the the tips folks, Im going to check out and see if I have any old handlebar clamps to raise my bars, I will hopefully get out on the trail this afternoon and try it. P.S My crm is a Mk 3, must of had a senior moment !
