You're right, Justin, it is comparing apple and oranges, but flipped porteur bars (like I have on my Jeunet) offer a somewhat similar (but not the same) hand position as the Albatross bars, but with less rise and less of a back sweep. And they're narrower. And yep, she's diggin' the A-bars, and the whole bike for that matter!
