Sure Peter .. to each out own ! One's passion is anothers poison. As I said, I've used flat portions in the middle of a wide bar on my Stumpjumper and found the position to be uncomfortable . And yes ..they are different than using a drop bar, as drop bars *DROP* from the middle to the swept back part, Bosco bars *RISE*. This is for ME of course. We're just sharing opinions here, and there's never anything to be sorry about !
