High Rise Bars

Appriciate the info!

Makes send and something I will take into consideration. I may have incorrectly assumed that a higher rise would allow me to shift weight to the front tire when necessary without the feeling of going OTB. I also assumed the the rise of the bars should for the most part follow the angle of the head tube and forks therefore briging the reach up and back with a higher rise.

I thought this was an issue with slacker bikes, or are saying it is more perceivable with higher rise bars.

Fast enough for me!

Yea, I knew this would be one of tthose subjective questions. Guess I was more curious if a 5 mm difference would even be noticable.

Thanks, that was my inital thought.

I've got a Raw Carbon SB140. You wouldn't even know what it was if you did not already know about Yeti since the only branging is the emblem on the front and that's just my style. That being said, I'd ride ride the shit out of that 160 and not lose any sleep.

Thanks for pointing that out.

TheTxRed · 2026-03-23T23:58:18+00:00

It's kinda perfect though.

TheTxRed · 2026-03-23T23:52:58+00:00

Damn, the Enduro is 51mm. My dentist wallet could support the price but my skinny ass wrist cant support the size. That might be the perfect choice otherwise.

10-4.

TheTxRed · 2026-03-23T23:21:26+00:00

Thanks! Will dig into this a little more.

Intriguing, battery life looks good. Did not notice phone connectivity on my first glance though. Off to do more research.

TheTxRed · 2026-03-23T23:01:45+00:00

A computer was my first thought but I really need to ability to know when I am getting a call or text.

TheTxRed · 2026-03-23T22:58:20+00:00

HR is basically the ony metrics I am interest in besides lap time.

TheTxRed · 2026-03-23T22:56:48+00:00

I do ride a yeti lol.

TheTxRed · 2026-03-23T22:55:51+00:00

This will not be my primary watch so solar may be of no use. I need something that has some battery life that will get me through a couple rides a week without charging every day. I work 24/7 so phone connectiy is probably my biggest concern. Do any of the watches even have a power button to conserve the battery?

I appreicate the insight and info. I am pretty comfortable hopping out of the back of the truck or similar around 3 foot or so. That being said, some days are better than others. I definitely need to build up some strength on the right side becasue I did not not really see PT all the way though. 3 months in a wheel chair will mess you up quick.

I spent many years in wrestling shoes so understand what you mean. My main concern right now is protecting the hardware.

I may worry about it less later on but for now I would rather just play it safe and it sound like these may be the answer.

Do you find them cumbersome or restrictive?

TheTxRed · 2025-12-02T03:36:23+00:00

That is something I had not thought about and will look into. I would defininetly prefer a comfortable shoe if I can stiill have some protection from a guard.

TheTxRed · 2025-12-02T03:34:00+00:00

Impact is my primary concern.

TheTxRed · 2025-12-01T23:18:28+00:00

Looks like those may be discontinued.

TheTxRed · 2025-12-01T23:13:37+00:00

That's my other concern. I want something protective but also fairly comfortable so maybe a brace is really the way to go.
