i recently switched from some old ITM mantis 26.0 road bars to some 31.8 FSA Wing Pro Compacts. i also added some Fizik bar gel under the tape, and i'm amazed at how much more comfortable the whole cockpit is with the wide flat bar tops and gel padding. i'm also using the drops way more than i ever have with the shallow drop.
i've always just used whatever drop bars i had laying around or were left over from my last build but i'm surprised how different these feel.
