Virtually every set of Phillipe bars I have owned, and I still have a few sets tucked away, were mounted to Peugeot bicycles. I have never run across a set of bars similar to the ones presented by the OP, though.

I can understand not wanting to ride a bent drop bar, but an upright bar? Is it really that much risk? I'm asking because I seriously want to know, not because I'm being combative or contrary.
