Although superior to the regular drop bars that twist arms and make for less torque when ascending grades perched on a fixed cog bicycle, the 10 deg. sweep on these bars seems less impressive in person than did illuminated on the screen. I am even reluctant to cut them down to a respectable size from their massive 770mm width as I may just enter them into stock or offer them up on EBay.
Searching the web to see what was out there, peaking in at the various sites of the major players in the MTB handlebar market, I came across these beautiful things:

31.8 mm clamp diameter, a heafty 25 degrees sweep, carbon option on the way. Modern efficiency realized. I'll be watching closely for these to hit the streets. Stay tuned to the ever winding saga of Decking Out the Langster...
