Everyone's different, but that's why I ask for advice. Specifically so I don't have to do anything quite so painful just to find a pair of handlebars.

A lot ofgreat suggestions in this thread. Thank you everyone!

This photo came up while doing a search for the Nitto B206 Nordeast bars. What a beautiful bike. Just about my ideal for a commuter here where it's pretty flat around town. Fyxation 3 speed.
