    Default Handlebar slipping with Rox Risers Help

    I installed the Rox risers on my 2018 F3L and I cant get them tight enough to stop slipping. There in no knurling on the handlebars. The bars want to slip with average pressure on them. I tried a prick punch and hammer to mar the inside surface. Didn't help. What now any advice would be helpful.

    I can't speak directly about the ROX brand ....but when I bought risers from " RSI " they sent shims because all handlebars are not the same size ......How close to the exact diameter is the ROX brand...... di you get SHIMS ??? .........Mike ..........PS.... PM Prairie Spyder ( Patti ) I'm pretty sure She has them on Her F-3

    Wet-N-Dry emery / sand paper works well in the bar clamp.....

    Default Two options

    Return the them; mine don’t slip.
    set your bars where you want them, drill through, put a screw in. They won't move.
    Your call.

    I'm confused,the U FIT system didn't fit or you just wanted something different? Glad you found a fix

    Rox Risers will give you more adjustability because you have 2 pivot points. You can move the riser up or down and the handlebar up and down till you have the right fit.

    The only time my handlebars slipped after the Rox risers were installed was when Cruzr Joe sat on my F3T and then used them to pull himself up. Maybe they would slip if it really leaned on them, but I try to push up from my feet instead.
