zoo handlebar question

[airfruit]

when u set up the zoo handlebar, how much extra "stem" length does it give u due to the rise? well, if u have it tilt forward so the logo is facing straight forward. kinda would like to know, so I can buy the right length of stem for it, to keep my cockpit the same as before I bented my brisa bar with a 120mm pazzaz stem.

the bars dont move forward at all. if you like the stem length you have now then keep it the same.

If you don't tilt the bars forward, the sweep will point towards the back of the bike, rather than upwards like the brisa bars. Tilting the bars forward makes the sweep point upwards, but also extends the reach because they are riser bars. That's what he's asking about.

If you're going for an echo stem, get the 105 x 5 i think it is. tilting the bars should make up the length that you want, and because the steerer clamp on the stem is wayy shorter than a brisa stem, you can play around with spacers to get the height of the bar dialed in to how it was before.

the reach extension depends on the angle of your bars

Right now i think he is running a 120mm pazzaz stem.

first thing you could do is try measuring it with a "RULER"

id say just buy the same size stem you probably wont no the difference.:dunno:

think I'll go with a 110mm stem. I'll tilt it forward cuz I dont like it when bars sweep back too much. Yes Kevin, I know it depence on angle, I'll have to play with that. :)
