If I remember correctly the shape of those bars have to do with clearance (knees) purposes, choosing it for the aesthetics maybe compromising too much (road off course). Seem pretty wise for the track... [strike]where would you fit the brake lever anyway[/strike]?
it's the arm actually, when you're in the drop, your arm are often near or touching the top curve part of the handlebar, that's why track drop tend to have a long curve instead of straight on the top.

What was the name of that Nitto bar again?
