Title: bars height
Post by: meticulous on September 14, 2008, 07:41 PM

just bought a 2008 pk ripper for my wife just so she can keep in up with oliver when he is the park on his bmx, but she is very uncomfortable on it, its too cramped for her, what are the tallest bmx bars you can fit, maybe 10in or more so i can try and make it more rideable for her, otherwise i may have to sell it...thanks in advance...sam

Changing the stem might bring the bars up, depending on whats on there? A top loading stem, and/or some headset spacers can add an inch or two. If you stem is a front loader (which usually drop the bars down a little) then try putting it on upside down.

If she's too cramped, maybe fit a lean-back seat post?
