I agree
hopperja,
For $20.00 or less they're well worth a try. I too am looking to get away from flat bars on my commute bike; but I'm looking for more of a bull-horn bar (like sometimes seen on fixed gear bikes) which will give me a more aero (and less up-right) riding position. Problem is, my shifter is Shimano's version of a Grip-shift (for Nexus 8 speed. internal gear hub) and I'm not sure that would mount on a bull horn type bar.
Plus, my bike is DaHon Curve folder, so the bars would have to be positionable so that they'd stow well when the bike is folded. So . . . anyone know where I can get some cheap bull-horns (steel of course) for a 1" (25.4mm) stem mount diameter? I'll check out the fixie sites . . .
