    Look for something like this:

    I put this on my winter bike. Raising the bars that much, though, may require you to change the cables as they may not reach any longer.

    Thanks for the posts on this - made me feel more confident when approaching the lbs this week. Anyway, bike now has a stem extender thingy that puts the bars a bit higher than the seat. It looks somewhat giraffe-like with a whole stack of extra spacers but wow what a difference! The neck pain is still there but I was able to go about an hour further before reaching the point where I had to stop and stretch That's a BIG step forward .

    If all goes to plan I should be able to gradually remove the spacers over the next few months as muscle strength and posture improves. Woohoo I might be able to do long rides next (southern hemisphere) summer
