Pleased all my ramblings about them helped... have them on 2 bikes now that my hybrid has gone to a new home and it's owner also loves the trekking bars and after experiencing an injury that makes riding in the drops impossible, this offered the next best choice.
Have refitted many bicycles with these over the past 3 years, most were mid eighties ATB's that are seeing new life as commuters and touring bikes as well as one tandem.
