Ever heard of Pinkie and Perkie?
On the Bars- 11 years ago I had to modify my ride position on the MTB due to a bypass that meant I had to take pressure off the chest. Went to riser bars and they did feel wierd at first. But they bring the bars rearwards and up so it worked.
Not a really good pic to see it but The hand position came back by 2" and height is still controllable by the stem and Rotation of the bars. And the bar ends are short Stubbies. Just long enough to stop the hands falling off the end of the bars.
