Handlebar risers

I found some on ebay for ~$20. Anybody have some that they especially like? Where did you get 'em?

The risers are steep at $75, the set backs are a rip off for $35 bucks more. it's maybe $1-$2 more in manufacturing than the riser.

I have a nice set made by Bikemaster I can sell you. I've been meaning to move them for a while. I installed them once in the garage on my 500/4 with 400F bars as an experiment, but didn't like. Never even rode around with them. Basically brand new. I can send you a pic.

I put a set of Rox Speed 2" on my CX. I like them as they have some adjustability. I added a set of Dyna Wide bars. Its a comfy set up.
