I'm looking for a 888 stem with 50mm length, 25mm rise. Know of one?
888 Stem
- Thread starter Lelandjt
- Start date
the 25mm rise is the biggest catch
What year 888? A new crown with a 4-bolt pattern isn't too expensive. PM me if you want one.
Okay, so I'll soon have a 4 bolt style crown to increase my options. In Boxxer style, what's a light stem with 50mm extension and a decent amount of rise?
Po1nt?
Works Components do 3, 5, 6, and 8mm riser plates for under the stem. Go to exactly the height you want. Or chop and change for different tracks.

just use a 0mm rise stem with a 25mm rise bar?
Was my first thought too. Only a few brands making 25mm rizer bars now days. Thanks to the low bar fad. Maybe not a brand the OP likes, or maybe he has some new bars he likes and no stem. Riser pads can be changed to get a desired height easily, and cheaply. Although you're adding a wee bit of weight compared to just using the right height stem(providing it's light).
What rise are the new 35mm Eastons(bar and stem)?

This is all because I got an Easton Havoc bar which was only available in one rise, short. Everyone else was lowering their DH bars so I went along, forgetting that I'm taller than most. Now I want my hands back up 1cm.
So Point1 stem with Mozart riser plates? I also realize just switching to the Boxxer style crown will give me more room on the steerer tube to put spacers under the crown.

If I see one more set of riser bars on a dropped stem, Im going to start flinging poo.
It'll be a while before 5'7" guys realize that 32" bars aren't right, but I'm patient on that one.
Fashion is...

Can't make it work with spacers under the upper crown/stem? If so, the riser plates are a good call. Just make sure you get longer mounting bolts!
I hear ya. I know bar length is preference but I just cant see riders shorter than maybe 6'2 running bars longer than 800 even 780mm. Im only 5'10 and Im at 760, could possibly go 750. On a medium V10c and 50mm stem seems pretty long still. Im getting a 30mm stem soon. Still feel a lil too stretched out atm...
Oh, of course Im being a critical whiner -- ride whatever the hell you want - esp big parts so my 6'8" has something that actually fits.
I could go on about people improperly using colourways, fitment, and things like 'forks' (clue the WHOLE is a fork the legs are called TINES, no matter how many.)
General disdain for logic and anything remotely resembling standard english (it actually matters) is the norm here - and will be avidly defended!!
...
79" wingspan on 31"s tho...
sorry, for running wide bars with wide shoulders and short legs......
Sorry, my mistake, the riser pads are from Works Components, not Mozart.
