I have a bad back and can't use drop handle bars. To get the maximum flexibility i put this handle bar on my bike:

Generally i'm happy with it, but i've been trying to use a couple stems but still not happy with the adjustments that are possible. Accidently i ran across this which looks to have quite a bit of adjustments. But no reviews.. anyone familiar with it?
