Ergo or Round drop bars...
 
Back and forth on this one out there...

CC has a huge lean on non-ergo bars. More than one LBS recommends ergo bars. What gives on this hotly disputed topic?

Looking at new bars this Fall most likely and the options are limitless, but this topic seems polarizing for some... :twitchy:

All comes down to personal preference. I've tried both and am currently running round classic bend in a medium-ish drop. round (instead of flat) tops and round bends seem to work for me best.

One of the problems with many "ergo" bars is that they often have strange bumps and/or non-continuous curves. I've been using a 3T Ergosum which has a nice smooth curve. Actually I don't have it on now, but the bars I am currently using have a similar curve. Get cheap bars, try different things until you find what works for YOU.
