I thank you for the good idea. Went and paid $5 for some old bull horns and put them in the middle. Work awesomely for folding myself up and offer at least 3 more hand positions. Thing is they are the wrong color. Fortunately I have another hybrid which matches them perfectly and was having reach issues anyway. Thus my hybrid solves an issue thats been bugging me for a while AND I saw some really nice flat black bar ends in the same style as my fuji for $35 at my favorite LBS which will be installed tomorrow. Its just a pity my shopping basket bike (the one behind the white one) is so covered with baskets and thus I can't give it the same treatment.
