Please excuse my ignorance (and cheesy word play), but what's so neat-o about the nitto bullhorns? I see a lot of them around and am still tinkering with my new bike. It never really occured to me to put anything but drop bars on it, but I'm curious about the appeal of these. They definitely look hot, but how do they feel and function?

And by the way: hi. I just discovered this forum and I've never posted on here before but am quickly developing a late-night addiction and seeing gleaming track bikes everytime I close my eyes. . .
