Anyone know how to translate the samurider website. Would like to find the rise on the bars in the link. It's showing Japanese on my ipad.

The samurider site is http://www.samurider.com and is in English. That gang link was just to show you the bars. You can send that link to Takashi at Samurider (he speaks English very well) and he can get you those bars or pretty much anything in Japan. He is GREAT to deal with and responds quickly.

Just remember the time difference. Sometimes you will only get one reply per day.

I bought them and put them on no good the right side brake hose is to tight had to take them off and send them back you need a longer brake line everything else is ok . I really need mine higher also but no good

If you need them higher then you need to use and get a longer brake line. No getting around that. I bought the ROX units off of Amazon for the Griso, those worked out nicely - for me on that bike. No need for extra long cables or hoses (lucked out).

I wanted to bring my handlebars a little closer to me. Looked at SW-MOTECH Handlebar Riser Barbacks but had concerns about wiring and cables. So I made my own set with the same dimensions just for trial purposes. With a little rerouting, it appeared to work. Ordered the real thing from Twisted Throttle. After installation I was able to also rotate the bars downwards slightly and gain a little more movement towards me as well. So far so good. I took the photos of my homemade products (Fred Flintstone barbacks) with a flip phone, hence the not-quite-in-focus shots. My first try at posting photos so here goes.....
