I certainly am. If my yet to try/buy fixie pans out, m' bars are the bars I
want to try first on it (it currently has bullhorn bars), and the shifts
described for this bar sound excellent to my upright loving clay.
With abandon,

Plus I like buying people's used M-bars when they decide they don't like
them!

I like the drop on current Ms, that's the only part that gave me pause. The
shorter/wider/swepter aspects all sound good, and the flatter part might be
okay as well. Should probably trust Grant on these things :-)

It looks like a natural evolution of a resilient design. Less reach, less
drop, a touch wider, and comes further back - all good. If I had any
additional suggestion, it would be for a skosh more flat at the stem, so
there was more room for my hands when I put them right up against the stem
on
Yes, that would be nice. I don't use that spot much/at all as I go out on
the levers on straight/flat sections. But yeah, another position never
hurts!

Yep. I was both shocked and excited to read about this. The M's are my top
bar, but if I were to nag it would be to bring the reach to the hoods
in..this new iteration would be perfect. I do also like the idea of wider
and maybe a slight flair, but those alone would not prompt a new purchase

Yeah, I'm excited about these. It would be great if they accepted mountain
bike brake levers.
I'm one of the folks that tried M-bars and didn't like them. Great
I'm excited to give them a go. They might be just the thing for my
commuter, which has narrowish drops right now.

I guess I'm one of the people who loves the current moustache bar. I
feel that if something absolutely *had* to change about it, it would be a
longer 'retreive' and nothing more.Call it the Fu Manchu or Wyatt Earp
Edition or something.Anyway they definitely don't need to be wider
It reminds me of this Soma bar:

I have this bar in its previous shallower drop version on an old Univega. I
can't put my finger on it but it has always not felt right and I'll take the
bike with the Nitto mustache any time.
