My own expectation is that the HS is a citified bike, so an Arc bar seems more likely to me.
I would LOVE a "Cunningham" bar from Rivendell, but my understanding is that Grant hates 'em. I wouldn't bend my own aluminum bars, though, out of fear; Charlie Cunningham has a heat-treating oven, and lots of cool tools. In other news, I saw a beautiful gray and maroon Hunqapillar in McMinnville, OR (pop. 30k) today!
