Maybe even a better bar (slight riser) or a shorter stem. At 1.77m I’d think you’d be better suited to a medium frame. If it’s used you may need to spend a bit of cash getting it fixed up, but it’ll last far longer and be a much better ride.

Get some hoopty riser handlebars. Just gives you a better workout. I have a mongoose fat bike 7 speed Shimano thumb shifter and aluminum mountain bike pedals on the way.
The stock seat was very narrow and hard. That is the seat I bought to replace the stock torture device. The new seat is about 13.5″ inches wide and the horn is a lot shorter. It is a lot more comfortable. As far as I can tell, the Malus and Dolomite are essentially the same bike, just with different rims and colors.
Wow did you see what that guy is riding? Watch as he glides over sand, dirt and snow. See the glee he has as he bounces over embankments and boings over rocks. The Mongoose Malus 26-inch fat tire bike has arrived to save you from the doldrums and put a smile on the faces of all those you pass by. Built with 4-inch tires (earning the name fat) on a supersized beach cruiser frame and there is plenty of clearance to make it rideable on virtually any terrain.
I have been looking at high rise handlebars or bar risers to help with the riding position. Depending where you are there are Hubbers who deal in good quality second hand parts who could sort out any niggles you have on the Tyax for not much money. This item is offered by one of our Exchange Plus partners – a trusted, third-party company that ships directly to you when you order on ShopMyExchange.com.

I had one for awhile that I didn’t ride very much, turns out I hate riding in the snow anyway.
The stock brakes kinda suck too so I was thinking about upgrading to Shimano hydraulic brakes in the future. Only thing you’d need to retain is the same cassette (for chain length and gearing compatibility) Hub width, axle size and disc size. Is “mullet” in this context referring to wheel size? Mix of 29″ and 27.5″ fitted on one bike. A password reset EMAIL will be sent to the email address you provided within 30 minutes.
You’ll be dropping the BB by about 20mm or so, but that’s not a train smash unless you’re already grazing rocks with your cranks & chainring. It’ll also reduce the inertia on the rear, as long as you’re not going heavier with the back wheel. That will make the rear more “lively” by virtue of it being easier to change direction, but not by much. Another by-product of that is that you’ll be able to lift the front more easily as it’ll have slackened out the HA by dropping the rear axle relative to the front axle. The huge SE handlebars are sweet.
