Nitto 177 noodles are a great bar, often hard to find for cheap but have a different ramp profile that is magic for many, it seems a bit counter intuitive but works very well once you get them right.

I actually like the look and vibe of randonneur bars but they don't even begin to work for for me mostly.

I know the setup on the Strawberry is jarring to look at but it rides like a dream for me so.......
