I currently have those bars on my Sam, and while I don't do 50 mile rides, I do 50 km rides (31.07 miles), if that helps at all.
I went from Albatross to these bars and added the Ergon grips for comfort. I lowered my bars for that sportier position so that there is a little more weight on my hands because of this. For my long rides, I never walk away thinking my hands hurt or I need another hand position. One hand position is good enough for me. Of course that doesn't work for everyone but I like it. For me, long rides, short rides they work well for both those applications. I an glad I switched over. By used, try them and if you dislike them sell them here. They seem to go fast when they offered for sale. Good luck.
