Yeah, general riding is a lot more comfortable with hoods, and I find climbing without is really difficult, as a big lad I like to get alot of leverage on the bars to drag my ass up....
The Planet X bars are nice, if you're buying new though I'd say get some Deda RHM 02, they're a good shape, have a classy finish, and an ovalised top section which looks good and is comfortable. Cheap too, alot cheaper than the zero 100s!
