SRAM grip shifters on North Road bars?
Trying to make my wife's "comfort" bike actually, you know, comfortable. It's an '03 Cannondale Adventure 400 . She complains of wrist and hand pain after only a few miles and I thought I would swap out the riser bars for North Road bars.
The question, of course, is transferring the SRAM grip shifters to the North Roads. Has anyone done this? I'm guessing this couldn't be too complicated, but then I've been wrong about that before.
Thanks.

From the North Road bars I've seen, I doubt there will be an issue. There is the same amount flat space for the grips and shifters as riser bars.
