Pulls it back and up about 2 inches and I didnt have to change any wires or cables.
After riding with them a few days I am really happy with the way it feels.
oh ya, that is my sweat on the bike from changing them in the heat
I just ordered these risers...got a question though? I am 5'5"....do the risers make the handle bars feels wider? I am really looking for a more relaxed...less of a reaching style of riding...put a Corbin modified touring seat on my bike which makes it lower and closer to the handlebars. Great sitting position for me now. I think the risers would be the ideal to make this a custom bike for this vertically challenged chick....am I right?
After I put them on I was happy, my hands used to fall asleep in about 20 minutes be fore the risers, now they hardly ever do.
I didnt feel like the bars were "wider" but they sure let me lean back just a little.
As for the cables, the only thing I had to do was loosen the brake cable brackets and slide the cable up a little then tighten them back up, took me about 45 minutes doing it by my self.
