After screwing up my wrists riding track drops (the outward rotation as you get near the drops on the top is not good) and experimenting a bunch, I switched to Nitto Noodle bars. Super comfy, look fairly nice and very well made. They don't have the weird anatomic (bent penis?) or ergonomic or whatever drop that looks kinda strange but they are made for comfort. You mostly see them in obscenely wide widths like 46 but if you look around and bug Ben's Bikes you can find them in 40 which for me is just about perfect.

Bare they look good but I wrapped mine and added some Cane Creek Campy style levers and they are slightly more dorky looking but offer tons of hand positions from bullhorn on the hoods to shallow drops (the first time I've actually used the drops because they are reachable and you still feel in control). Plus the Nitto fit and finish is outstanding.
