thanks.

that looks like what I just ordered. thanks

Dropped off at Richardson Bike Mart by White Rock Lake a few minutes ago. They're gonna do a complete tuneup check all the cables, spokes, add a short yoke that will bring the bars about a 1 1/2" closer, ordered 3 1'2 riser bars, will reset the brakes, cables, etc. About $150. Very decent deal...

thanks. Almost the same exact bars I am looking at. Got a note from the mfg thats its a 31.5m bar

makes sense. Cant wait to get back on the horse!

interesting. Let me check out what the bike company has to say once I drop it over there. They are gonna have to tweak a few things anyway, lots of scraped metal and so forth.

Handlebars like yours would probably do the trick. Will try those at the bike shop

Looks great. Good suggestion - I went out and tried it. Unfortunately at the point above the main stem, it starts to slant upward - which means when you turn it around, it slants downward. Would probably make riding near impossible

thanks to both of you. Gonna head over to a rather big bike store tomorrow and see what I can find. Paul

Yes, it does. I'm pretty broad shouldered so I may have to try a few out. Thanks

any problems steering? ( with the thought that I cannot straighten out my right arm )

I like that. Theres not much you can adjust on my bike as to the current handlebars

Wondering if a new stem might also be a solution.
