I'm lazy, maybe I'll just bend my current drops out aka the hippy flare - guaranteed to lose you teeth!

Adjustable flare/width/bend must be the next big thing.
Just came across this: https://bikepacking.com/index/gravel-bars/
I haven't put a flared bar on the bike as I ride it on roads mostly. But who knows where I end up with it.

If the drops are at good height for using them on the rougher stuff they might be great, so why not try.
I do like having the hoods as narrow as they are now though, for the smooth gravel I usually ride, so not sure about the wider ones for most of the time, but they might be great for some events/rides. Winter would be a good time to test, with the snow and all.
