I never thought taller handlebars would've made my bike so much easier to pull up or to jump. I'm 5'9", with a 19"75 TT.
As well, i got rid of the lock on grip for some slip on, the zipties trick worked amazingly well.

What height did you switch from and to?
How are you riding that small of a toptube? Flatland?
I am also 5,9 and ride a 21″tt
update : i took it for a spin, i need to play with bar position a little but, so far, i can throw bunny hop much easier, i feel like i have more control over my manual (i dont need to squat as hard to loop out) and dropping to flat seems easier.
I even surprised myself doing a Nollie on the first try. It’s much easier than with the smaller bars.
As well, power slide and 180’s feels easier to send, even if i cant do a full 180 yet.
