I'm biased towards North Roads. They have the flared angle that matches the wrist rotation. I ride moderate-to-long distances and have no issues except for the occasional headwind. Using an adjustable stem with the pop-top, I sometimes quickly flip them upside down when I'm going long on week-ends.

The Albatross and Mustache bars are very classy looking, tho. For your Motobecane, I think the Mustache bars would look better, and, you aren't riding very far so the distance comfort issue probably won't apply. I say that because lots of people find them a little lacking over long rides, preferring drops.

chicyclist has a neat Albatross setup on her city/utility bike. She's in here somewhere...
