Hi all, I need to gain 1-2" of reach on my bars.  Im not ready to go ape or pay big bucks for new bars and cables yet! I was wondering how much give there is in the cables/wiring? I thinnk that a set of 3" risers with a 1" pull back ($50) wil do the job with regards the reach, but I dont know if the cables will fit.  Changing the cables is not an option at this point in time. 

I tried hanging by my arms but they wont stretch. Any ideas welcome

you could always just un bolt the bars from the risers and see how much movement you have to play with, check it on lock to lock also
