Yes. The forward portion is really only for use during serious hills. My wife rides probably 80% on the main grips, 15% on the sides, and the last 5% on the forward grips for climbing. I think the difference in mounting is "butterfly bar" specific.

[EDIT] After looking at those pics, though, maybe we should invest in a set of those rather than a stem....
