The drop portion of the bar is good for climbing and the tops are there if I so choose. When I grip the very ends of the bars my back is flat and can two-finger the brake levers. Works great.
where abouts are your brakes? are they on the bullhorns themselves or in the middle? i think the brake levers would look pretty cool on the horns, pretty easy to pull too if your constantly gripping there

id say its a very hard choice between bullhorns or compact drops, atm im heading more towards compact drops because ive found a bar for a nice price, where as i cant really find bullhorns i like 100%.
