They also have a drilled cable stop for your front cantilever brakes if you need it. If raising the bars is not enough, then I would try a "northroad" style handlebar. The sweep of the bar will place your wrists in a more neutral position. Good luck.
Oops, I just changed my opinion. That's the one I'd go with too.
