Maybe this short top tube and stubby tall stem has me overly concerned but I think I need bars with the primary hand position well forward of the stem. Moustache bars?
FWIW I put these on a torpado i had, without changing the stem. The torpado fit me. It was no problem to ride with these.....it was not an upright ride. These specific bars don't sweep back to far, unlike north style bars

another options wold be bars like this with a nitto dirt drop stem....
