Help!
I've got a 24seven trials frame (26") with a 30mm bb rise, which has a 110mm x 10* stem and some easton ea30 bars (low rise). The problem is i just don't feel comfortable on it, i'm 6'3".
When i'm on the bike i seem to be in a position where i have to crain my neck to look up and i'm finding it difficult to get the front end up. Would a longer stem with a higher rise (like an echo 130 x 15* or 145 x 25*) or some bars with a higher rise be better?
Cheers

You might find the 145x25 too long with that bike. Try something with more rise, a Try-all 130x20 would probably be good, and try a bar with 35 mm rise or so?
