Yeah I have it in my head that it’s a good option for this bike, which needs to be fun on trails (as my only mountain bike (for now)) but also comfy for pootling and child-carrying duties.
I’ve not bought any bars yet but I think I’ll probably keep them under 700mm for reasons you stated :-)
Victorian mid-terrace house not that conducive to easy navigation of wide-barred bikes!

Short stem and wide bars can be really fun on old mtbs.
I have '97 Kona Lava Dome with 810mm bars and 50mm bmx stem.. was very fun, but difficult to get through doorways!
