I'm definitely feeling grips angled back would be nicer than straight bars without bar ends.
That pic of my Kona doesn't show the bars very well...here is a front view...
Velo Orange Milan bars, similar to Mary bars I think, just much cheaper lol. I have since added different grips (RAV-X ergonomic grips). For a brief time I also tried a Soma Sparrow bar, but it seemed too narrow. At any rate I no longer even think about making any changes to the bars and grips..it is very comfortable.
Mary bars would be good too, especially if you want them in black. I taped mine up to hide the silver.
