Since the dorados are so tall, how are you guys keeping the handlebar height down? Anyone have the race face atlas flipped upside down? How does that actually work?
I have a Dorado with an Answer DM stem set to 50mm, and I also have experience with the Race Face Atlas DM stem on the fork. On the Atlas stem, in the drop/50mm length, and Atlas handlebars, you can get the bars low as long as you roll them just enough to clear the top of the fork tubes.
Basically, for a low handlebar, you need a 50mm stem length. The Atlas DM stem in the 30mm length on a Dorado requires a higher bar configuration.
Is anybody on one of the newer flat wide bars? Is there any difference vs. riser bars these days? Seems like a good way to go if you want to keep your front end low...especially when discussing 10mm risers or something similar. I can't imagine there's much difference in stiffness/feel anymore.
I have a Dorado on my DHR and I run a 50/55mm Twenty6 direct mount stem to run my bars below the top of the upper fork legs just like mtg posted. Works great.
