Thanks, yeah probably overstated. I may still consider this bar... might just try what I have first though. Seems like there really isn't any bar I can find where the drops for a parallel 'U' shape, they seem to all be open slightly more than parallel. But the shape of the top looks promising, I often wonder why they don't make many road bars that bend back just slightly - much like most all flat bars do.
