I'm 6'7" and on an XXL Santa Cruz Hightower V1. I run an 800mm wide OneUp bar with 35mm rise on a 50mm stem. The fork is the stock length steer tube and I run max possible spacers under the stem. I also bumped the fork travel from the stock 140mm to 160mm.

Yew! A fellow member of the two meter club! I can't really contribute as I haven't had a real trail bike in decades. On my homemade DH and slope bikes though I was leaning towards lower bars toward the end of my riding career to get better balance on the bike and trusting the front end grip more.

Running the Spank Spike 800 Race Riser Bar - 800mm x 50mm Rise x 31.8 Clamp. Nothing special but they feel good and come in a lot of different rises.

6'3'' on an XXL Megatower with a 155mm headtube. It seems like most frame manufacturers are still pretty conservative with their headtube lengths. The new XXL Spire and Capra are both 130mm. SC is a bit of an outlier on this but I'm a fan. Running a 40mm rise 800mm wide FU40 with a 35mm stem and 40mm of spacers including the headset cap. A lot of the terrain we ride here is steep and steppy. This set up is bias towards that sort or riding but I also like it when riding more mellow terrain. Maybe that's just familiarity.

6’7” and ride XL 5.5 and XL process 165. I’ve got 40mm spacers under the stem, run 50mm stems and 40mm rise bars. The process has a short HT so I’d run a higher setup if possible but the ST came cut Kinda wanna put a 29” wheel on the process to lift the front, and because that’s super hot right now

Curious on what kind of handle bar rise and stem angle/length you taller riders are running? I am 6 foot 4 and ride a Santa Cruz Hightower XL
