That was 3x worse than straight bars with bar ends that I currently have.
Personally, I prefer drops and am looking at some clip on aerobars as well. I've developed a lot more core strength and flexibility as I've lost weight, so the aero position isn't an issue with me. I know they'll sure be nice if I'm riding against a headwind, but not if I'm in a group!
(Unless I'm pulling,that is!)
