Foot pegs
 
Being 200+ cm tall I'm finding that riding while standing could be better, so I'm looking for some foot pegs that are lower.
I've only found a pair from swmotech and different sites claim different lowering, anywhere from -15 to -25mm

Has anyone tried these? Are there any alternatives out there?

30mm bar risers

Got them, and there is no more to go on with the cables :)

I use the SW Motech pegs in the lower position and I can vouch for the fact that if you are longer of leg than average they are worth their weight in gold. They also have a much bigger platform both in width and depth. I'd thoroughly recommend them.

Great, just the kind of recommendation I was looking for! How tall are you btw?

Nowhere near as tall as you! ;)

I'm 183cm, but I've got gangly legs! Lower pegs = more leg room = lower knees = more weight on feet = less arse ache. It works for me.

And no scraping when driving a bit spirited in the corners on tarmac? I have raised the rear about 4cm so hopefully won't be a problem

Yep, never grounded a peg out since the change.

Just to be sure, are these the ones?

I can't really see from the picture how they can be lowered

Edit: Nvm! Found a better picture
