what does the screw attach to, or does it just grind into the bars? sounds interesting. I might have to buy me some 200 dollar risers.

It "grinds" into the bar. Not sure that's the correct way to describe it but it does what a set screw does lol. Now if for some reason the the riser clamps were to come loose the bars are going to move but as long as they're tight your bars aren't moving with the set screw in there. I got 16" gangsters on my bike and I'm constantly yanking on the bars to move it around in the garage or whatever and they're solid
