If you have the H style you can't just swap out the bars, you have to change the whole stem (and recable?) so it's an expensive mistake to make.
I'm sure 3 speed is good but I know people who ride those who say the small gear is too small and the big gear is too big.......if thats the case then you're paying a weight penalty and a more expensive replacement cost for something you might not really use. Plus the mechanics of 2 speed are really straightforward.
