A stem with a positive angle, or in many cases, just flipping the stem you already have

Turn the stem upwards? 🙂

Picture looks like it’s an uncut steerer with spacers on top? Seems a bit, I dunno, redundant?
Anyway, not sure about prices, have you looked at Surly Truck Stop bar?

Surly Truck Stop is about half the price and available in a few different widths but only 30mm rise and doesn’t have the brace at the top to mount stuff. I’ve got it and very happy with it.

The image posted could just be marketing but it makes no sense in either way. A riser makes sense if it’s a bike with a cut head tube and no more room for spacers. This is just dumb.

Doing literally anything else. ‘Riser drop bars,’ good grief.
In that picture, moving the stem above the spacers and up-angling would let you run a normal bar. But no, slam it and then use a riser bar. Because reasons.

Specialized hover bar, you can get one with flair, but it’s not that much.

I have some Orbea riser bars that I took off my M30 that you can have for $10 + shipping. Think they’re like 15mm rise?
I think Specialized also made some with a 15mm rise too.

Raise your stem if you have the space.
The only thing I like is that it looks like you can have more space for accessories. But if you want more space, you can just get [something like this](https://victorebikes.ca/products/handlebar-extender-accessorie-mount)
You are welcome. These things are sweet and I rode them for a while until I had to change out my stem and go with an integrated bar/stem combo.
If the link will not show, I just searched for carbon gravel handlebar and they are from the Balugoe store.
