Always lay the existing bars to the front without detaching any of the cables or controls other than cable/wiring straps and pull the risers. Install the new risers and bars and see what ya got before tearing it down. Few hours spent to see if they are going to compliment your reach be well worth the effort if you have doubts. Br measuring system is pretty much bullet proof and those are some nice looking bars.
