I remembered "Soma Sparrow" in the back of my mind, and looked them up. They seem to have a number of nifty options.

Handlebars | SOMA Fabrications

My situation is that I greatly prefer an upright riding posture, but straight bars pound the hell out of my wrists. Swept bars are vastly more comfortable for me. So I own 4 different swept bars: Generic steel Schwinn, Velo Orange Tourist, Origin8 citi classic, and FSA Metropolis.

Somebody on this forum posted a list of swept bars with dimensions, several years ago. I once found it in a search, but can't find it again. If anybody has better search-fu than me, it would be a great service to find and post the link.

Edit: This might be it. Different forum, which might explain why I didn't find it here.
