Looking for handlebar advice

I like drops too and after trying bull horn / aero bars, the only benefit I can see over drops is you have a better hold on the bars when mimicing the hoods possition.

I really needed the hoods position + a brake lever mounted where I can be aero yet spin like buggery. The Bulls did this for me. Drops with standard hoods would have done the same though. Just like having different set-ups on different bikes.

Midge bars.

The drops are too wide for normal road use IMHO. Brilliant in the snow or off-road though.
