What have you done to make your bike more comfortable to ride?

Bull horns. turn them up and slightly back, put hand gripes on them. Use it 90% of the time, going down to the bar for braking and handlining ruff trails. If you want them even higher like I do, use a combination of what you did and the bull horns. I'm an old Hippy and I can't get high enough. THIS WORKS!

I have ALWAYS raised my handlebars to be respectful, with good morals, and kindness.

Ok you are such a smart lad, I just ordered a new adjustable stem. I am 6’2 with a titanium neck and fused back at the sternum so the new stem will help me out tons.thx bro.

I went with a much taller model on my bike. Ran into a few issues like brake lines and wiring not long enough. After rerouted, I was good to go. Night and day difference!! I really noticed less pressure on my wrists and hands as well. These still bother me and am considering different handlebars with a different bend to them. But the riser helped a ton.

Love it! You are really informative .got a new bike and knew nothing about how to adjust or change the neck. Thank you

[bigfoot-gi]

your perfect english makes understanding your video comments so easy to understand everything you say, thank you and WELL DONE.

[falconmoon]

[tasertek]

I added it my bronco and it made a huge difference! Great idea, thanks Kyle!🤠

[rinsecycle]

dude! i wish you would have shown the entire range of how far it can lift it! this didn't give me an idea of that.

[MrDnovack]

Can this stem be turned around 180 to make the handle bars closer. Thanks great job as usual.

[bigguy]

Made a Huge difference on my fat tire philodo h7. So much better now. It's like a beach cruiser now.

[IceManOregon]

Super helpful! Easy fix to low stock handle bars

[dazzer]

Just subscribed, brilliant tutorial mate, made me want to keep my eBike and do this to it, make it fit me more comfortably!

[corymiller]

I have a sore back from riding but I'm not ready to lose my preferred aggressive riding position. I'm running 12lbs in my fat tires, have a rigid frame, seat post shock but I still like to believe my sore back is from the jolts. I'm averaging 15-20 miles a day, 7 days a week. Oh well, gotta pay to play, or in my case, go completely car-less!

i just purchased my foxbat ebike today. feeling good now.

[Sampardhanani]

Hi there, just discovered this video, was informative. I n some videos people have discouraged this type of stem saying it would get loose all the time hence a basic stem is better, what has been your experience friend pls help .

[jp]

Thanks for the informative video. I have a couple of follow up questions. The adjustable stems that I have seen come in lengths from 65mm to 120mm. My original stem is 90mm, should I get a 90mm adjustable stem?
Also, what is the height of pinch bolt adapter, does your adjustable stem come with any spacers in case I need them?

[danielcloud]

Awesome!! I had you guys put that gooseneck on my New foxbat that I received a month ago. Complete game changer! Love it! so much easier on my back

[corymiller]

Kyle, in your lab, design and build an 'adjustable on-the-fly stem' kinda like to the dropper seat post. I realize this may call into question stability, but on road mostly users may get away with it.
