I did a search and I am a little jam, there are a pair of bars on Ebay I want to bid on but, I can't find the measurements anywhere. MXSouth, Answers website, nothing. Even did a search and didn't come up with much. I'm looking for a high bar and not much sweep. I"m 6'3 so I hate the feeling of falling over my bars...

Thanks guys :)

Hucker,
Try Thumper Racing bar risers to eliminate the going over the bars feeling. They offer two versions - +1" & +1.5" Both are available for 7/8" or 1 1/8" bars. I'm 6'4" and use the +1.5" w/Enduro Hi ProTapers - huge improvement. I think you'll find the Pastrana bends too narrow for guys are size.

I've got the pastrana bend and love them! I'm 6'0". You'll really like them. They feel really natural in the standing position without making the seated position uncomfortable.

Post above says they might be too narrow, but I can't see how! They are 31" wide. Most woods riders have bars that width or narrower.
