The Albatross bars I have on my Homer have been my favorite bars to date. The sweep has been perfect for the road and gravel trails and never get ant hand numbness. Set them up 5 years ago and have not touched them.
I was looking at the Seine bar for another bike that has a 31.8 stem. Only 5 degrees less sweep and wider seam like a good fit for me because I like really wide drop and alt bars.
