Hi everyone!
I've had this one persistent problem as long as I can remember. If I use a low stem and a flat handlebar, then I can't pull the bike up for bunny hops and drop offs, no matter how much I practice.
Then if I install a riser stem and riser bars, I can pull the bike up without any problem, but the handling becomes really awkward and obviously climbing becomes hard.
Have you guys encountered such problem and how do you solve it for yourself?
Thanks!
P.S: Here's a couple of photos of my current configuration. Bars a too high and ride is really really awkward. I sit straight up, like I'm on a cruiser bike.
