Review on 🚴 Enhance Cycling Experience with Delta Cycle Bike Bicycle Stem Raiser: Riser Pro Extender for Elevated Handlebars by Darrin Parasson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great handlebar height increasing device but very important considerations

my experience with the installation and limitations is the same as all the other thoughtful reviews. In addition, each review should repeat the following three points. 1. If you are unfamiliar with a bike head tube and adding a lift stem (this article), be sure to read the Q&A provided by Bill and search for the YouTube video he suggested for review. 2. Regarding installation, the screw that secures the stem jack to the steering column is installed deep inside the stem jack. I would venture to say that no typical home mechanic has an allen wrench long enough and shaped enough to provide a "mechanical advantage" when tightening to get at the screw in the stock jack. You'll either have to buy one, or in my case "assemble" several screwdrivers and extensions to get to the pipe and tighten the screw. 3. Cables and their sheaths for shifters and brakes coming from the handlebars must have sufficient (extra) length to accommodate the higher position. To take full advantage of this unit's substantial height, you may need to replace one or more of these cables. If you're ready to take on those challenges, this crop lifter is perfect for you.
