[QUOTE=Brennan;15519711]To me, the grip angle seems just right in that it feels like a natural hand position. For example, from a standing position with my arms at my sides, if I raise an arm as if to reach for something in front of me, the palm of my hand is neither parallel to the floor, as with a flat bar, nor is it perpendicular to the floor, as with the drops of a road bar. Rather, it falls at an angle somewhere in between. The H-Bar seems to nail this position nicely. It probably also helps that the 590mm width of this bar seems to be an ideal match to my shoulder width. Below is a
photo of me riding the bike with the H-Bar. To me, it even looks comfortable (although other factors are at play in the overall riding position, of course, such as frame size, stem length, stem rise, and seatpost height).
I went with a Titec H-bar for similar reasons, I have a bad shoulder and can't seem to get comfortable in the drops. Swapped out the 35c street tires for some 40c knobbies and went trail truckin'
