Default Best Pullback Risers for Pro Taper bars

What are your thoughts on the best pullback risers with internal wiring? Looking for about 7-8" high with 2" pull back, that accommodate 1 1/8" protaper bars.

Yes, love them ... only problem other than the $, is that you can't run the wiring internally.

If you are talking about the difference between having the wiring coming out of the bottom of the handlebars or coming out of the risers a little bit closer to the trees, I really do not think visually you’re going to see very much of a difference. I still have my stock handlebars on my LRS, and with the 6 inch risers with the wiring coming down from the center of the handlebars, you can barely see the wiring. With those Kraus risers, you’ll have even less visible.

My .02,

Dave

Good point Dave ... I'm going to do a google search for an image of the Kraus risers mounted.

Im already running biltwell murdocks risers on my dyna with 1" bar. My plan is to swap to a 7/8" pro taper bar in the winter in still using the same risers with conversion shims. 1" -> 7/8". I know its not 1 1/8", but maybe something look at? I dont know if it looks pretty or not with the shims, but i dont think i will notice it. Just a suggestion
