I'll be getting a pair of 'Antler bars'. Just $72 + shipping ... that's like $1 per hand position.

I'm slightly bothered that someone's looked at those pictures and then used the words "makes sense"

I like them , and they have a dual use too. When a chavvy t^*t trys to get in your way to take your bike on a dark night you can just ride straight at them and gored them big time. That will stop em!
I have some antlers in my shed maybe I could make my own bars and they would be authentic too

The problem with bars like that is they always end up steering you in the direction of a rut...............

I need this for some of the paths round here, it'll get all of the dog walkers out of my way when I'm hoofing it!

Also doubles as a handy clothes line for those laundry times.

I reckon a steering wheel is the way forward - multiple hand positions at every possible angle, lots of space to bolt stuff too and hang bar rolls off, and (unlike those antler bars which look terribly unsafe to me) unlikely to end up sticking into your gut / femoral artery

All I can picture is an OTB with my torso simultaneously pierced on both sides and me trapped and bleeding out ...
Well it is cheery Friday
