And if you look at the positions of the levers you can see why. The round
bars give you more positions to set the levers and still be able to reach
them from the drops or tops.

I KNOW I'm waaay out of the loop, JT. But just how common have these
"anatomic" bars become?
As I get older, I see very little that's ergonomic about typical
bicycle racer posture or equipment. And the little warnings that my
setup might not be perfect that I got in my 30s are not as ominous as
the reminders I'm getting in my 50s.

Almost every "stock" racing bike in the US comes with anatomic bars.

Steverino, if you are going to post lots of links, could
you set your news client so that it doesn't automatically
break lines at 76 characters even when there is no whitespace?
It mangles all the URLs onto two lines. Thanks.
