• think you're on the right track here with the simworks. can't recommend wider swept back bars enough. i have the rivendell wavie bars, which have pretty much the same shape, on my (similar) bike and they work wonders. the width really makes a difference.

    what you can also do is put a bit of newbaums or other bar tape on the curve to get another, further forward positioned grip point for climbing and accelerating.
