I think I'd like these. Maybe. On a road/dirt tourer. If I didn't have loop bars already. More choice in alt bars is always good anyway.

Riding Woodchippers I can't comment on the aesthetics (and we don't have a bleurgh smillie

).
I'm sure you spotted the disclaimer that they're not for MTB, but just in case:
Crazy Bars are made from 6061 aluminum and are heat treated. Weight is pretty reasonable at around 450gm. Note that these are not intended for mountain bike use, but we will have a heavier version made from thicker-wall tubing for MTBs soon.

After the initial bleurgh reaction, and I know I'm crazy and have absolutely no taste, but these look really interesting for us poor sods who can't afford Jones loops. Hope the MTB version comes in at a budget price.

Im thinking something along the lines of those bars but with a built on aerobar like the above, would give a very versatile setup and if cyclocross top levers were used cleverly you could have brakes on the backsweep and the bullhorns?
