happy belated holidys to all. I got a set of 2" rox risers from my fiance' for xmas. The question I have is will I have to get extended brake lines to use them?

I don't imagine the solid line part of your brake lines will flex too much, so I'm gonna say 2" might be a tad much for the stock lines. But, there is no reason to buy the extended lines w/o knowing first. Remove your bar from the clamps and raise it up 2" or so and see how much flex there is.

 

On the other hand, you could take advantage of the situation and get stainless lines anyway, and have much much better braking. Once I went to stainless lines, I'd NEVER ride w/o them now. And I doubt you'd need +2 lines, because they're not solid lines so they flex, you could probably get away with stock, or go with +1 to be safe. I have +2 arms and +2 extended lines, and there is plenty.
