Here’s a bar height example from **[Pistons & Pivots:](https://nsmb.com/articles/thomas-lindups-1988-volvo-and-chromag-doctahawk/)**
I’m not a fan of all the headset spacers (which shorten Reach quite a bit and make at least some fork manufacturers nervous) and I wanted to write more on the subject so I’m currently riding a 76mm/3” riser bar from ProTaper. My bike grew a decent amount (same stem length) slamming the stem and getting all the rise out of the bar.

*Edit - Here are a few shots of the ProTaper bar.
