Bar Height Question

[Nate_Robertson]

Im ordering some hep trons tomorrow and I am 6 foot . I am currently riding 23h bars and they feel superrr small. I cant decide ethier to get 25h or 26h. Does anyone have any feedback for me? Thanks! Also i dont know if i should get them 20w or if i should get 21w haha

There is NO way I'm going that tall haha

 

[Anton]

hold up dude youre 6 foot and youre riding bars 23 tall by 18 wide? you really need to step it up

 

[Brennan]

You can always order the bigger size and cut them down if you want them smaller.

You will get used to riding taller bars and you'll realise how much nicer it feels, im 5' 10 and I ride 27 h x 23 w. I would start out ordering like 28 h x 22 w and ride it for a few weeks and after a few weeks/a month you still think theyre too tall just cut them down an inch and ride that a few weeks til you find your perfect height/width.

always order bigger, you can cut them after

Just get either coop xls or source bars and just don't cut them down. I'm 6'1 and my bars were 28 tall and 24 wide until my scooter got jacked

 

[Nate_Robertson]

I think I'm gonna go 26h by 21w. I just never got around to buying new bars i got these before i grew a ton so i kinda outgrew them. I also have a job now so i can afford new parts. Would going 21w be 2 wide for riding a 20in deck? Im worried my bars will hit me when i do barspins.

 

[Beck Dobrzanski]

Nah man you can ride 26 wide bars on a 20 inch long deck and be fine hahaha. Plus I think your getting a little too big for your deck, try a 21 long deck, even if you ride park and shit you'll be fine also you should get wider bars cause that does not sound comfortable at all riding 21 wide haha

 

[Brennan]

I used to ride 21w with a 19.5 inch deck, barspins were fine.

 

[Nate_Robertson]

nah im not getting a bigger deck i bought my thresh last year and its fine if i was gonna upgrade to anything else it would be a 20.6 deck land I've riden them and i don't feel much of a difference so ill just ride my thresh till it snaps. I ride pretty much only street and if i go to a park i don't do all that flippy crap. I think ill go 22w and 26h

 

[Beck Dobrzanski]

True shit

 

[Flocka]

Id go 22 wide for sure. You can always just cut them down.

Just get the biggest siZe you can get and then cut down from there on you're own

I have no clue how everyone on SR rides such tall bars. Everyone in my town thinks my bars are stupid tall at 28 inches, and I'm 6'4'', yet there's kids on here that are 8 inches shorter than me riding 27 inch bars, 11 inches shorter than me riding 26.5 bars. When I had 29 inch bars it felt so wrong. I couldn't do anything.
