Rising To The Occasion?

I'm thinking of putting bar risers on my '02 280 TXT Pro. I'm 6' with fairly long legs, and the bent over stance is a bit tough on the back on longer trail rides, and on bigger obstacles, I find I'm putting too much weight on my hands. Pretty much a beginner, wtih one season on the bike and no competitions (yet!). Bar and clamps are stock.

Given the above, is getting bar risers a good idea?

If so, who sells them online?

Thanks!

I'm even taller at 6'-5" with a 36" inseam. I added a 2" set of pivoting ROX risers and a 6" Jitsie fatbar. Much better visibility and I can still kiss the front fender on a climb if I have to.

Got the bar from Stu at Jack's cycles and the risers from ROX.
