I rode these bars before my bike got stollen 14 years ago and I'm just now putting a new bike together.
I LOVED these handlebars but I feel I need something taller.
Does anyone have an idea of the height of these MK bars are? That will give me a gauge to what I need for my new handlebars.
(And if anyone is selling non-chrome bars with little sweep, IM me)

I'm not sure about these ones, later models are here:

I think they were probably somewhere around 6.75"

Did some digging and found some info. They were actually 6.5" tall.
Updated the list:

thank you so much!

specs given by the maker is great info but better is to measure YOUR bar height since that's kind of very easy ;)

Hey Revig, his bike got stolen... So he cannot measure it.By the way: How would you measure if the bar has up-sweep? At the end of the griptube?
-
Oh I assumed he found another set, the one he showed the picture of
I will measure exactly where I put the red arrow ;)
Moreover, below is a custom pic coming originally from the flybikes site showing the bar height:

i have some tiny ares bars if that what youre after

or try the odyssey gouin bars, mtf bars, sickchild bars, london bars, many narrow bars

Revig, what I meant is that you could measure at the inner or outer end of the griptube, and if there is a bigger upsweep, it makes a difference. I believe that typically the outer end it considered, but I am not sure so I wanted an opinion.
