+1 Have them on my bike and love 'em. A planned 75 mile each way out and back bike camping trip a couple weekends had to be rescheduled, otherwise I'd be able to offer an even better report on the bars, but I can say after 2+ months of 14 mile round trip commuting and a couple 30-ish mile fun rides that the trekking bars are VERY comfortable and have proven to be an excellent addition to my bike.
