I have an Appaloosa with the Rivendell Bullmoose bars on it now. While riding, I often find myself holding the ends of the bars, as if the ends of the bars have bar-ends, or as if I am holding a stick shift of a car sideways.

These are the third bars I have had on this Rivendell. I had Albatross bars on at first, but wanted something wider. I put on a flat mountain bike bar for a while but it was too low. 

Now, I'm wondering - do I secretly want high-and-close drop bars? Am I craving some sort of dirt drop bar?

I'm thinking maybe I want wider bars (like those Tumbleweed Persuader bars) - but I also live in the city and do have to weave through traffic a lot. 

Thoughts?

Michael

Gotta try Uncle Ronnie’s Ortho Bars! I just got a mis-centered set from kind member here on the forum. Have yet to mount them as I’m waiting for a Gus to put them on. But mocking them up next to my Albatross bars they seem like a real win!
