Riser for the Concours 14 ...2008?
Does anyone know if handlebar risers are avialable for the 14? My arms are just a little too short.

Tom- How much higher would you like? We are going to make, but not sure how many sizes to make.

One inch would do it for me.

Hi Rob,
I removed the handlebar on my Coucours 14 and determined that 3/4 " is the max for risers. More than that will require extending the hydraulic cables. Don't want to get into that, therefore my preference would be 3/4" (.75 inch).
For what it is worth, I am sure you have thought of this but, my suggestions would be to make 1/4" risers plates with a small flange to hold them in place when more than one is used. Then you could have the flexibility of adding or removing the riser plates if your rider or style of rider changes.
