I’m with you on that. It always seems like a lot of work to adjust bar height when quills were so simple.
I should have said, could you get around it by using a high rise stem like these? https://velo-orange.com/products/cigne-stem https://velo-orange.com/products/vo-happy-stem-31-8mm
They may not get you high enough, and are an aquired taste aesthetically, but thought I should mention them.
Thanks for that! I've tried another brand with a similar 'Happy Stem' look from VO. It felt somehow a bit nervous to me.
The Cigne stem appeared outlandish at first now, but the more I look at it, it be something to consider.
(I have actually been in two minds about keeping the bike though.)
